Round 4 of the RACE Moto CA series is complete. Alan decided to take part in the Friday practice session to help out a couple of new riders and get some needed practice on the Shannonville Motorsport Park Pro Track layout. Qualifying on Saturday was held in perfect sunny conditions. Alan qualified in 3rd place in the lightweight class and 6th place in the middleweight class. The well used Dunlop tires continue to provide awesome amounts of grip despite the many laps they did at the last VRRA round. Saturday afternoon brought more great weather for the first races of the double header weekend. Alan got a mediocre start in the lightweight race and finished in 4th place behind 3 Super Sonic Road race school alumni. The middleweight race was a bit more exciting with Alan having a multi pass battle with Jeff Miller on his Aprilia RS660. Alan came out ahead to finish in 6th place exactly where he had qualified.
Sunday morning was raining and Alan chose to forgo practice in the hopes that the afternoon races would be in dry conditions. When it was time for the lightweight race the decision was made to go with the rain tires. The warmup lap showed that this was the wrong decision but the majority of the grid had made the same choice. Stefan Tanasic launched into 1st place with Alan hot on his tail on the dry race track and Gervais Antoine chasing them in 3rd place, This is the way they would finish. The 4th and 2nd place finishes in the 2 races gave Alan 2nd overall in lightweight for the weekend. The middleweight race was once again a battle between Alan and Jeff for 5th place with Alan managing to stay ahead to the end.
The next race for us will be the VRRA 3 hour endurance race at Shannonville Friday September 11th where Aaron Burns will be making his second appearance of the season as the team looks to continue their winning ways.

After winning the Modern Lightweight class in the endurance race on Friday with Pat Boyd, Alan had 2 Sprint classes to race on Saturday and Sunday. First up on Saturday was the Modern lightweight heat race, Alan followed Mikey Moore for 4 laps in second place. Unfortunately for Mikey he had a low side in turn 10 on the last lap giving Alan the victory over Bernard Roy by .002 of a second. The next heat race was the BOTT lightweight class. Alan started in 4th place in class on the 8th row as the Heavyweight and Middleweight classes are gridded first. Once again Alan found himself right behind Mikey as they went around a large group of bikes in turn 1. This time Alan was able to get past Mikey and use the leading middleweight racer as a blocker to win the heat race.
In Sundays finals Alan led the modern lightweight race for 2 laps before Istvan Hidvegi got past and motored away for the win. Alan then had a drafting battle with Chris Shea ultimately coming out on the losing end for a 3rd place finish. The final race of the day was the BOTT lightweight class. Alan started in the 6th row behind all the Heavyweight and Middleweight twins bikes a great start saw him get by a bunch of bikes in turn 1 and 2. Once again Istvan passed and took off. Several other riders followed and Alan finished in 6th place just behind Bernard after a last lap drafting pass.

It was the final round of the 2026 Bridgestone Canadian Superbike Championship at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park and Alan decided at the last minute to enter the SuperSonic Roadrace school lightweight production class. He didn't do the Thursday track day, so Friday morning was his first time on track and first time on the Bridgestone slicks. It was an okay session getting reacquainted with one of Canada's fastest tracks. Turn 2 has a few new bumps that meant adjusting his lines was necessary. Afternoon Qualifying was the second time on track and he managed to qualify in 10th place but another rider had an issue on the dyno test so that moved him to 9th place.
Saturday morning it was raining and tires became the subject of everyone's conversation. Luckily the track dries out for lightweight practice so no rain tires were needed. When it came time for the 1st race of the weekend however the track was closed due to heavy rain and lightning. That meant a new race schedule for Sunday with 2 lightweight races.
Sunday's weather was much nicer. Alan got a great start from the 3rd row and found himself in 6th place for the first couple of laps before the Mosport draft allowed 4 riders to get past him. He spent the next 10 laps looking for a way past, but couldn't do it and finished 10th with his fastest laps of the weekend.
The final race of the day Alan had a great start and was briefly in 5th place before a couple of bikes got by him on the Mario Andretti straightaway. The rest of the race was a drafting battle with Mason Archer with positions swapped a couple of times but at the end Alan was 7th.
