Hopefully he can recuperate for the second heat, if not, there are more important things in life and Hangtown and probably even more possibilities will come his way. He showed he isn't scared to race a stock engine and he also showed he can be competitive on it!

The kid rides a STOCK engine with HGS exhaust system and the ECU is tweaked to bring the best out of the bike. He qualified in 14th, so what are you talking about mate?

Giving a 2017 article as an exemple speaks for itself. Hating gatedrop for other reasons, maybe ? They are top notch 98.98% of the time and have a list of contact in the GP Industry longer than you'd ever dream of. You'll feel sorry for slacking them when standing construct and ice one will announce 2022 plans mate. Following the GP's from your couch since the 70's clearly did not bring you much knowledge. Classic vital'ssssssss
