Glenn Allerton
The Kinderis managed Next Generation Motorsports Team had a new look at Phillip Island on the weekend after picking up Spectro Performance Oils sponsorship in the lead up to the penultimate round of the 2022 mi-bike Motorcycle Insurance Australian Superbike Championship.
They also went into the round with an added boost of confidence after some recent tests.
Glenn Allerton qualified ninth, nine-tenths off the new qualifying lap record set by Josh Waters, but less than half-a-second from the front row.
Glenn shone in the challenging conditions experienced in the opening 12-lap bout of the weekend, challenging for victory, but ultimately finishing second to Bryan Staring.
The tyre went away from Glenn in the second race and he drifted back to seventh at the flag
Glenn was in the fight towards the front in race three before getting ran off the track at turn four, he rejoined the circuit to hang on to fifth which was good enough to secure a round podium after bagging 50-points.
Allerton heads to The Bend finale this weekend fifth in the championship.
Glenn Allerton
“The weekend threw out a lot of challenges especially with the weather, and I am really happy with our 3rd overall result.
“Race 1 was wet and we were very strong, challenging for the win and finishing 2nd. Race 2 I had a great start and made my way up to 2nd place. But I suffered rear grip issues finishing in 7th place.
“Race 3 was another great start and the team had made some changes to fix the rear grip issues. I was in a long battle for the podium but lost the tussle to end up 5th. Confidence is high heading into the Bend this weekend. I am aiming for the top step of the podium.”
Shane Kinderis – Team Manager
“A weekend to remember, Mother Nature threw everything at us and kept the team on our toes all weekend. We had the bike working well and then the rain would wash all the grip away, forcing us to be constantly changing our set-ups.
“While we had great results in race 1 finishing P2 on a wet track. It was the first time Glenn or Sloan had ridden the M1000RR in the rain and our guess on the Bitubo suspension was not far off the mark at all.
“Race 2 the track had changed and we struggled to get the grip we had had in qualifying. Big changes for Race 3 saw us battling at the front again until late in the race when Glenn was run off the track, ending his battle for a second podium for the round.
“To Achieve 3rd overall for the round was a great achievement for the team especially with our new sponsor on board. We now head to Tailem Bend ready to fight for the podium once again.”
