Fri 18th April. British Superbikes Thruxton. Tough day today in free practice
18-04-2008
Today's free practice sessions (Friday) were difficult with the result that we are off the pace. Fortunately the reasons are clear. Our speed trap times are reasonable showing good power however, the handling was poor with the bike reacting to the undulating circuit. This afternoon we have changed the suspension set up to take into account what we have learnt during the practice sessions. Tomorrow therefore we expect to improve. The weather will also come into play tomorrow with rain expected at times.

The great race at the new Portimao circuit brings an end to our season in World Superbike Superstock 600, with riders Gino Rea and Dan Linfoot.
The season has been a success with Gino third and Dan fifth in the championship standings following three victories and five additional podiums in total. The results have also acted as a stepping stone to the riders for next season, with both securing high profile, career progressing rides for 2009.
Thank you for all of the emails, calls, texts and visits throughout the year. It has been much appreciated.
