Well the start of the Endurance season is upon us.

We have completed 3 tests over the last 6-8 weeks 2 in spain and one last week at Le mans.

We have had a very successfull testing program and have found some big improvements, the ex haga swing arms have given the bike alot more drive off the corners. The 2D data loggin system has given the team some interesting data ( thanks scottoiler)

We have only had one crash so far and that was at Le Mans which aint bad when you understand thats out of six riders.

We have just spent the weekend preping the bikes it is one of the busyiest times for us as We have the Assen 500k onbank holiday monday then the Le mans 24hr the sunday after, because of this we have 2 senior bikes and 2 juniors + 2 new spare engines to take. Also we have had to take double the spares to normal (just incase) even tho we have team members who will be able to bring other spares to Le mann.

We are taking 30 Dymag wheels, we have new brake pads from SBS which look like the front pads will last the full 24hrs !!!!!!!!

I will keep you all upto date

Watch it on eurosport and keep yer eye on Bikes 3 and 6
