CLASSIC SUPERBIKE RACING ASSOCIATION
P92
Feature
the end, I had nothing for them.
Their bikes were better equipped than
mine so I settled for third.
The rules are being sorted out at the mo-
ment, especially when it comes to wheel
sizes and brakes, but seeing how this was
the first real outing for the CSRA, it was best just to
have as many bikes on the grid as possible.
The CSRA race proved to be a real hit with the
fans and fellow racers. Every time out people were
excited to see the bikes go by, and lots of specta-
tors stopped in at the garages to check them out.
In the end, everybody involved had a fun and
memorable weekend. Mine was equally
impressive—I encountered some me-
chanical issues, saved my front-row
qualifying lap for the last of the session,
and finished third on the podium. I even
sprayed some champagne!
I have to give a special thanks to Kevin McK-
ee for the Z1 offer and also thanks to MotoAmer-
ica, the AMA, and some much-needed support
from the dedicated AFM tech officials and crew
for whom without their help the CSRA may not
have become a reality that weekend. CN
