You couldn't go past Glen Skachill after his brilliant performance at the Taupo Indurance race last month. He is young, talented and sure does know how to race a bike to its potential. I nominate him for the ride for 2009.

Glen Skatchill is the rider I have decided to help as much as I can, the details of support etc are to be finalised between Glen and myself.

Glen is entered for the 4th round of the NZ champs at manfeild on 13-14-15th of Febuary, this will be our first time working together, and as the weekend progresses, we will build an agreed plan for the Vic winter series and the summer champs I hope.

Thats bloody fast! Was that off a stop watch or lap timer? Thats lap record pace on an unsorted bike...

On a laptimer and now that Shauns announced who it is,That was on Chris Osbournes new 450 as well which still needs more sorting

**Tony.OK** · 1st February 2009, 14:31

Thats good news..........Glen's got skills and has the determination to go well.
Interesting to hear he went faster on the 450 than his 600........12's are impressive on an F3 bike

At least he won't be allowed to show the F1 bikes up in the wet now hahaa.

I wouldn't say that!! F3 is still eligible for F1 at winter series

Glen was bloody fast and smooth. I was very impressed. Times were on both on board lap timer and my stop watch with-in a tenth of each other. Still a bit of set up changes that could be done as I am about 25kgs heaver than Glen and we were using used tyres all day.
He went so fast I now have to decide if he should ride manfield as well as Puke as having me wobble around 3 seconds slower is a bit of an insult to the bike.
Also anyone out there that has a few dollars they would like to invest in a young guy Glen needs all the help he can get!! It is very hard to go racing on $12 per hour apprentice wages!!
I will be helping him out as much as I can But you need cash to pay for Entries and fuel!!

I Am looking foward to watching Glen's Progress over the next year.
