No joy for Finnegan during Senior TT.
 Martin
Finnegan and his Alpha Boilers Honda team didn’t get
the result they had hoped for from the TT Centenary Senior
race as Finnegan suffered an engine problem just ten miles
into the race.
“We had an engine failure ten miles out and we were
only 1.8secs down when the engine went so that was not so
good,” lamented Finnegan. He stopped at Ballig Bridge
and had to get back to the paddock which was fun and games,
“I had to cross under the bridge and through the river
to get back across at Ballig Bridge. I got back up and some
of the guys came and picked me up so I got back and had a
chat with the guys,” he explained.
Now that the racing is over Finnegan is determined to relax,
“I’m now having my first beer of the fortnight;
we are going to relax and have a night out which is something
we haven’t had as it has been so busy. I’ll have
a rest tonight.”
Although the results have not been what Finnegan had wanted
he has enjoyed the TT as an event, “It has been really
good and well organised, they have put a lot of effort in
and it has been good racing. I’ve enjoyed it,”
he concluded.
With the TT over Finnegan will now concentrate on some other
road races, “I’m back home for the Skerries and
then Klaffi, Christian and I will do the Southern 100 in a
couple of weeks,” he said.
