A clean sweep!

What a start to the season with ALL the race wins taken by the Black & White Race Team - yup all of 'em!

We started off well with Paul in poll position and Erol right behind him in 2nd place after a great qualifying session.

I'll try to put up a full race report soon but in the meantime, Paul got 3 race wins and a 2nd place, Erol got a win, two 2nds and a 4th.

We are 1st and 2nd in the championship table.

And we got all the fastest laps too. In the second race of saturday, the one that Erol won, we recorded absolutely identical fastest lap times - 1min 18.57.

More soon!

Paul.

Blue...the new Black!

I had the great idea of adding a blue pearl to the top coat laquer to give the bikes a shimmer effect for this year - that's if we are going to be lucky and get some sun for them to sparkle in!

The stuff looks great over the top of the white bits on the bike but has had a rather overpowering effect on the black. So much so that we may have to change the name of the team to the Blue & White Race Team.

I keep walking up to Hizzy (our Black & White cat, the Team mascot) with a spray can of blue paint but he keeps running away!

Still, whatever colour you want to call it, the bikes look great...




Erol and Paul in the pitlane of Snetterton at last sundays trackday.

Both bikes performed faultlessly and both riders we very happy with their pace. We were in the 1.19 bracket but still on some very worn tyres and not able to push through the long right hander of Corum Curve.

So with new tyres about to go on for next weeks opening rounds of the SuperClub Championship we'll be ready to ride at the front of the pack!

Come and see us at Snetterton, it's going to be a great weekend of racing

Paul.
