Metzeler Racetec National Superstock Cup Finale in UK Solid Run for K&N Sponsored Team
- Oct 15, 2007
The 2007 road race season has ended for Harrison Brothers Racing at Brands Hatch
in the UK. Jonathon and Richie Harrison were ready to roll at the Metzeler
Racetec National Superstock Cup near Swanley in Kent.
In the first qualifying session Jonathon Harrison powered his 2006 HBR R1 equipped with K&N Engineering products into the top 15. By lap 7 he was in the 49 second bracket and climbing the timesheets.
“With 15 minutes left in the session, we brought my younger sibling back to the pits,” said Richie Harrison. “Even though he was passing rider after rider the bike was beginning to slide. We fixed the bike and sent him back to the track. He was able to hold 14th place on the grid.”
In the second qualifying session Harrison Brothers Racing knew that everything was working as expected. Jonathon Harrison held 12th place and moved on to the main event.
“He took his place on the 3rd row in the 11th spot,” said Richie Harrision. “He had a great start but made a small error after five laps and went to 12th place. Going into the last lap my brother rounded the last turn and headed for the line. Jonathon had a 12th place finish and a total of four points.”
K&N Engineering has supplied Harrison Brothers with parts since 2005. “We know with K&N our bikes are working at their best,” said Richie Harrison. “We never have a problem with any K&N products or services and we are looking forward to working with K&N again in the 2008 season.”
The Harrison Brothers plan to compete in the British Superbike Championship for the 2008 season.
