Wow

Well the year end is upon us!! It's gone by even faster than I remember any other seasons go wizzing by. We've had our first win at last, seemed to be a long time coming, myself and stu were quietly confident at Thruxton and Brands GP that we could take a win but we had to wait untill Croft!! At least at this last round there is one more race than usual so still plenty to fight for. We've not stopped pushing forwards here at Hydrex Honda and have been fitting and testing several things to help Stu and now Tommy achieve the best results. We tried the KR swing arm at Croft which certainly had a different feel, we would have liked to have tested this a little more but it was taken back after Croft. For silverstone we developed a new engine braking assistence strategy, this was to help with the backing in and inconsistent feel on corner entrys. This proved to be very sucessful and we were very pleased with the results of our labours! For Oulton we've been looking at improving the traction control strategy and made some big steps forward with the throttle feel on initial openings to help the riders mid turn and exits. Plan is for podiums minimum and certainly being in front of at least one of the Airwaves yamahas! See you soon, PJ
