TTXGP 2010 Final Albacete - Second day report

The second day started off chilly and cloudy and foggy. Late in the afternoon yesterday it clouded up, overnight it stayed cloudy, and there was supposedly a 50% chance of rain. The clouds cleared off by mid morning. The first qualifying round was run in slightly misty cold conditions at 9:45 AM. I made a writeup elsewhere: TTXGP 2010 final at Albacete; First qualifying round There was a second qualifying round in the late afternoon during bright clear windless warm conditions.

Overnight they installed the "secret weapon" Agni motors on Jenny Tinmouth's bike. But for the first round they didn't change anything other than the motor, same sprockets and same controller setting. In that round she finished 1 second ahead of teammate Rob Moon. But by the second round in the afternoon they'd changed a couple things and she gained several seconds.

You'll not see in the results below anything for SMP Racing. They'd bought a motorcycle from eCRP - UPDATE: eCRP leased the motorcycle to SMP Racing ("too unpredictable to sell"). eCRP designed their own motorcycle frame, and used the twin Agni drive train and Kelly Controllers like Mavizen is doing. But with the eCRP they sold (UPDATE: rented) to SMP Racing, that bike is having no end of trouble and wasn't able to get on the track. They've tried several different firmwares and been in contact with Kelly over and over, but no luck.

In the first round Campus Francorchamps got on the track but had to retire pretty quick. In the second round you see they made it through and did really well. They, too, are using the twin Agni drive train, but on IIRC a Yamaha chassis.

Everybody picked up speed during the day. We're having a nice relaxing time chatting with each other and enjoying each others company. I'm so intrigued that the UK series seemed to have the same sort of camaderie family feeling that the North American series had.
