EMRA Round 6

Woke up sunday morning to be greeted with bright blue skys and no wind, could not have asked for more.In qualifyng i went out and just could not keep the back end from sliding about, and only managed 6th place on the grid, i really wanted to be higher up than that as i still had to secure 3rd place in the championship.


For race 1 i had new tyres fitted as the extra grip was realy needed. I got a good start and after a few near misses in the first couple of laps i was in 4th position trying to chase down 3rd. i finished 4th in race 1.



Race 2 i got and awsome start, I managed to keep 4th place for a few laps whilst hunting down 3rd, managed to take 3rd place on the exit of gerrards, and finished the race in 3rd place, I also managed my personal best fastest lap of Mallory in that race, 58.788 secs, and achieved 3rd place in the Formula 400 championship!!



Then the last race of the day was the novice race, all classes were in this race due to ealrier stoppages, so this made the first few laps a little ineresting, trying to get 5 bikes into 1 corner at the same time is a bit tricky, but i managed to come 1st in my class.So all in all it had been a fantastic day, just like to say a big thanks to my mum and dad, RJS Superbike & BMC racing team.James #98 f400
