McKillop Racing Report from USBK Championship at Kirkistown

This past Saturday June 6th, we were at Kirkistown for the 4th round of the USBK Championship.  With a day of very mixed weather, we embraced the wet and dry and just gave it our all!

Alexander had a great weekend on the Production Twin, taking the win in both races, once again!! He had tough competition from Stephen McKeown, a past McKillop Racing team member and champion, but he gave it his all and got across the finish line in first proving his talent and determination. Alexander is currently leading the championship at 150 points with the 2nd place rider at 93 points.

In the Pre Injection class, Alexander had dusted off his retired bike from last year after we decided to step away from the Superbike fiasco (no thanks to our MCUI), but unfortunately he had a DNF in both races due to an electrical fault. It was a great opportunity however to get the bike back out there and get a feel for it again. The faults have now been rectified and the bike will be good to go at the next meeting.

David Scott, was back at it again in Production Twin class. In race one he had a 4th place finish and race 2 he came in 5th! In the Moto one class, he had 2 x 7th place finishes leaving him at 3rd in the Moto One Championship as it stands at present. In both classes, he beat his personal best lap times so he is definitely moving in the right direction. A promising young rider indeed!

The weather certainly made it challenging at times to know which tyre to use, but a notable mention to Michelin Tyres. In the production twins class, race 1 had Michelin tyre users in 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th place. The 2nd race had 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th places. So that shows just how good they really are!
