British Championship Round 7 - Knockhill June 2005

Alex has never raced at this local circuit before; only having had a few sessions round it at a practice day last March we did not know what to expect here, however despite the disappointment from his fall in the race this must again show we are on the right track as it was undoubtedly his most successful meeting to date, why?

Again the bike was quick and reliable, Alex finished every session and improved his time in each at one point even making provisional P2, however he eventually took his place on the 4 th row of the grid along side the very experienced Daniel “Ferret” Cooper and Alex Lowes,

In morning warm up Alex set the third fastest time of the session a 55.3 which if done in qualifying would have put him on the front row of the grid for the race.

All our hopes came to nothing however as on the second lap while lying in tenth a high-side at the hairpin seen him crash out. I presume this is why we are addicted to racing highs and lows separated by seconds!
