2 x 1 hour races in one day, this new format of racing I think will become extremely popular. The lap was set out in a stubble field with fast flowing corners and no obsticles, It certainly looked as though it was going to be really fast and great fun. I got the holeshot and got away cleanly but with only a four minute lap I had soon caught the tail end of the field and had a coming together with a back marker, taking me out on a corner, This had allowed Jack Twentyman to get in front of me, We then had a great battle for the lead but it was not long untill I noticed the power was going off on my bike and a few corners later all the compression had gone. When I got back to pits we saw that the rads had become blocked and and run dry and after taking the barrel off it had blown the rings, A great shame as the racing was excellent fun but we will back for the other two rounds.
