With the warm sun beating down, who wouldn’t want to be at a race track by the sea!! 2 weeks home from the TT and we’re off again, FSRA round 2 with Ben and Wayne contesting the championship. Got some bad vibration on the front end which is proving to be a problem especially when braking… its an uncomfortable ride! After having to change a bearing and a brake disc at the TT, they thought that would cure it but it hasn’t! Numerous suggestions from many other people havn’t solved it and its proving to be a real issue. Ben and John are all over it trying different ideas, Wayne trying set up changes, but its not improving.
Qualifying in 8th place was not where they wanted to be but they couldn’t resolve the issue in time. Quite a battle of a race and the team took a 6th place finish despite the handling issues.
Sundays race was a similar experience for the boys with another 6th place finish and unfortunately 4 seconds off the leaders pace. Got to get this sorted but its proving to be a mystery! Onwards to the Southern 100, needs to be right for the roads!
