s3d designs sponsors Graham Molyneux
6 months ago
s3d designs sponsored Graham Molyneux Racing in 2009, which was the first ever KTM 125cc to compete in the Isle of Man TT event.The team reports for the TT event:
"Into the first race and off the line Dan was lying in eighth position and closing on the pack ahead, once settled in Dan was in fifth position by lap four but on lap five entering Cross Four Ways half way around the track Dan over braked and slid off at low speed and was unable to continue with light damage to the front brake lever.
With repairs completed we went on to the second race with Dan again eighth off the line, on lap two Dan progressed to sixth place. With a rider dropping out and Dan pushing hard he was closing in on fourth position which he was able to take on the eighth and final lap on the main straight. This was short lived as on the approach to cross for ways with little more than one mile to go the machine ran out of fuel. On investigating this following the event we have found a carburetor part failure which caused the engine to use more fuel than usual."
We would like to congratulate the team on a excellent first season, where the bike and rider clearly showed good pace. We look forward to following the team in the 2010 season, where they have the new young rider Tarran.
We will post further news on the s3d designs as and when it becomes available.
