Kinsella
rides again.
.Below is is a brief exert from an
email to Supermoto NZ from Greg Kinsella who is leading the
NZ Supermoto nationals after two rounds. Kinsella was unable
to do the final round of our championship as he had to return
to his native Ireland to defend his national title
there.
Kinsella was a fantastic addition to our championship
aboard a VOR 570 (he rides TM machines in Ireland) and says
he'll be back next year to do all the rounds. The final round
of the NZ Supermoto nats is this weekend at Taupo (Sunday
20th March, Centennial Park Raceway).
Greg Kinsella's email:
-Just
letting you know how I got on at round 1 of the Irish
Championship (The
reason I had to come home!!)
It was the first time I rode my new TM's but by the end
of the day I was over a second faster than the nearest competitor
who was former Irish champ David McKee (Husky UK).
On race day I set the fastest times in both
the 450 & Prestige
(S1) class. I won both 450 finals but was only 2nd in Presige
final one & 4th in final two due to a stall. I will try
to get you some photo's of the TM's & me on them, they
usually take a few days to surface though & I just pinch
them off the net, ha!
So right at this minute I am leading the Irish & New
Zealand Supermoto championships, it's a real shame I cant
get back this weekend to finish it off, but all going well
I will be back next year for the whole thing. If you want
any more info or anything just mail me & I will get it
for you,
Cheers,
Greg
Supermoto NZ wishes Greg all the best and looks
forward to seeing him again next year.
