Brands Hatch test Report
A frosty morning greeted the TJW Racing Team; part of the track was still quite damp. The team decided that the first
session of the day was not going to be run, due to slippery track conditions. This session caught quite a lot of other
riders out, resulting in a total of 7 bikes going down.
As the sun broke through and track temperature increased, Aaron climbed a board. Steady couple of out-laps to assess the
conditions. It soon became clear that the track had dried out. The session was soon to be Red Flagged due to another rider
going down.
The third session soon saw Aaron settling down into a very respectable pace, until the exhaust broke, resulting in a
substantial loss off power.
After lunch the track temperature had increased, Aaron climbed aboard, with the new Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa tyres,
supplied from Pirelli. Aaron, with a clear track in front of him, soon got his head down and started to reel of some very
impressive lap times. Aarons’ fastest lap was nearly 2 seconds quicker than last years fastest lap in the race at Brands in
2006.
Aaron and the team are pleased with the days testing and have a confident setting for the first round at Brands Hatch on
the 7th-9th April. Thanks to all our sponsors for their help during winter testing.
