📍 Next Stop: The Pre-TT Classic
​While the world’s eyes start turning toward the Mountain Course, our next competitive outing takes us to the Billown Circuit for the Pre-TT Classic Road Races.
• ​The Vibe: Pure, nostalgic, and incredibly fast.
• ​The Challenge: Billown is a different beast—tighter, bumpier, and requires pinpoint precision.
• ​The Goal: Fine-tune the rhythm, dial in the late-braking zones, and keep the momentum rolling before the main event begins.
​🗓️ Stay Tuned
​We’ll be heading across the Irish Sea shortly to set up camp in Castletown. We’ll be posting behind-the-scenes updates, paddock insights, and onboard clips as we prep for the first lights-out on the Island.
​To our sponsors and supporters: We couldn't do this without you. Let’s keep this charge going! 🚀

Progress at the Triangle: NW200 Supertwins Report 🏁
​It was a weekend of grit and forward momentum for the team at the North West 200. Lining up in the highly competitive Supertwins class, we faced a challenging starting position but proved that we had the race pace to compete with the best.
​Starting from 25th on the grid, the mission was clear: stay disciplined, find the slipstream, and pick off positions one by one.
​Race 1: Moving Through the Field
​The opening race was all about navigating the heavy traffic of the early laps. Our rider showed immense composure, picking lines through the chicanes and utilizing the bike's stability on the high-speed runs toward Coleraine.
​Result: P18 (from P25)
​Top Speed: 160.3 mph
​Race 2: Breaking into the Top 15
​With more confidence in the setup for the second outing, the goal was to bridge the gap to the mid-pack leaders. The pace was relentless, but the hard work paid off. We managed to secure a 15th-place finish, a ten-place gain from our starting spot, while finding extra performance on the straights.
​Result: P15
​Top Speed: 161.9 mph
​The Team’s Take
​"Coming from the back of the grid at a circuit as fast and unforgiving as the North West is never easy. To walk away with a Top 15 finish and see our speeds consistently climbing over 161 mph is a testament to the work the crew has put into the bike and the rider's determination."
​Thank You
​A massive thank you to our technical partners and sponsors. Results like these are built in the paddock as much as they are on the asphalt. To the fans around the 8.9-mile circuit—the support was incredible!
​Stay tuned as we carry this momentum into the next round.

Strong Start at the North West 200
​The atmosphere in the paddock is electric as the opening qualifying sessions for the North West 200 got underway today. It’s been a highly productive start to the meeting, with the team hitting the ground running on the 8.9-mile Triangle circuit.

​Key Highlights from Qualifying:

• ​P15 Overall: Securing the 15th fastest time in a stacked field is a fantastic baseline. In a race where margins are razor-thin, being inside the top 15 provides a solid platform to build on for the main events.
• ​Bike Setup: The machine felt stable through the high-speed sections toward University and met expectations under heavy braking into the chicanes.
• ​Consistency: Lap times remained consistent throughout the session, proving that the race pace is right where it needs to be.

​Looking Ahead:

​While 15th is a strong jumping-off point, the focus now shifts to fine-tuning the gearing and suspension settings. With the weather playing ball and the track temperatures rising, there is plenty of room to shave off those extra tenths in the coming sessions
