The motorcycle racer uses EBC’s GPFAX pads and X-Series floating discs
24-year-old Spalding-based motorcycle racer, Morgan Creasey, is currently competing in various British Motorcycle and Racing Club (Bemsee/BMCRC) championships, including the Thunderbike Ultra and Clubman 1000 races, which he uses his K7 Suzuki GSX-R1000 to compete in.
Creasey’s motorcycle is fitted with EBC Brakes Racing’s GPFAX motorsport brake pads and X-Series floating brake discs for this year’s campaigns.
Creasey recently took a side-step from the regular NLR action, to take part in the series’ ‘Motul ACU National’ endurance race at the scenic Anglesey Circuit in North Wales.
The three-hour race saw setbacks, followed by the mother of all comebacks for the team that Creasey was a part of, seeing the outfit with in their class by the end of the action.
Read how the weekend panned out in Morgan’s own words below.
“Last weekend, I competed in something a little different: I was invited to join an endurance team at Anglesey Circuit.
The NLR’s ‘Motul ACU National’ endurance race last weekend at Anglesey Circuit saw me team up with the ‘You 2 Are Bullies’ team, along with David James and Keith Stringer, for a three-hour endurance race.
“During the team qualifying on Saturday morning, each of us had a stint on the track. Our best lap time was 1:11.01, which put us in P2 in our class, and we started in row 9 on the grid.
“In the afternoon, the race began. We decided on a strategy of longer stints at the start and shorter stints toward the end, with each rider doing approximately 45 minutes before swapping. Unfortunately, a red flag at a crucial moment caused us to lose time. Despite this setback, we were determined to catch up.
“After David’s stint, we were 42 seconds behind the leader in our category with only 35 minutes left. Instead of risking more time in pit stops, we decided to do a final stint and go all-out to close the gap to the leader. As we saw the time gap decreasing on the pit board, we gained belief that catching and passing the team in P1 was possible. With seven laps to go, we managed to overtake and took the lead in our class.
“We finished the race as winners in our class and P7 on the track!”
