Last weekend saw our BTC riders head down to Brands Hatch Indy to compete in the NG Club meeting. Our riders, Ben, Harrison, Samuel Munson completed in the Open 500 class as well as the GP 250 class. They were also joined by Wilson Racing rider Sullivan Mounsey. Friday consisted of practice sessions for the riders. Saturday and it was the first race day, with the GP 250 race first. Coming up against bikes with double the HP of their own the boys pushed on well. Later that afternoon the boys then went on to compete in the Open 500 class.
Sunday would follow the same program however in morning warm up a bike that was out in their session dropped oil onto the circuit, no flags went out in time leading to Harrison and Samuel getting caught out and ending up in a crash that consisted of a 6 bike pile up. This would result in Samuel not racing Sunday afternoon. Sunday afternoon and it was time for the second race of the 250 GP class and the Open 500 class. Our riders all had a great weekend of learning with the team managing to walk away with a double 1,2,3 finish in the Open 500 class.
