P10 Overall at Thunder Valley - Frustrating Day

Honestly a frustrating one. The pace was real, but two bad starts and a crash cost us what could've been a big one.

Qualifying I locked in pole which felt really good. The bike was working well and the track suited us. Confidence was high heading into motos.

Moto 1 I had a terrible start, found myself buried back in 18th. Not ideal, but put my head down and got to work. Made some solid passes and clawed it back to P6. Not what we came for, but showed the speed was there when things opened up.

Moto 2 I was 11th off the gate. Starts are something we really need to work on. Was making quick gains though, worked my way up to 3rd and went for the pass for 2nd. Pushed it a touch too hard and went down. Dropped back to 7th, which was frustrating enough, but the crash damaged the throttle cable and knocked out the front brake. Tried to hold it together but with the bike like that there was nothing I could do, slid back to P15.

P10 overall isn't where we want to be, especially coming from pole. But the raw speed is there and that matters. Starts and staying on two wheels - fix those two things and the results follow.

Back to work. Onto High Point.
