Well had a very good day today at Barber taking two dominant wins both from the third row on the grid. First race up was the Formula 500 race which i won by over 10 seconds and the second race which is the main event in the 500 Premier class i managed to win by 4 or 5 seconds. So me and the team are pumped going into tomorrows races and setting us up to take maximum points going into the next round of the championship. The bike was on rails and running great. lapping faster than last time i was here and so very close if not taken the lap record!! So looking to do the same again tomorrow and head to Daytona Speedway on top.

Day four here at Barber Raceway was another ripper taking wins in both the Formula 500 and 500 Premier World Championship races giving us the clean sweep for the weekend and maximum points heading to the next round at Daytona International Speedway. The bike was faultless all day and we are still tuning it so we can be faster still. the fuel is quite different here to what is normally run in the bike so we are learning each time what works best. sad to leave this track as it is an unreal place, but leaving with some great memories and story's to tell. Off to Florida today which is going to be and all day drive but going to check out some sights on the way.
Thanks for the kind words everyone!!!

I'm gonna take a guess that Nick might be riding a Manx Norton....?

Found his Facebook Page, so yeah the Manx Norton on Meth.

Not running methanol in the ES2 in the States, it runs meth here though and Pete was doing lots of carb and jetting to get it running right, sounds like he has :woohoo:
