Hawk Kawasaki Competing at Isle of Man TT
 Hawk Kawasaki are pleased to be running 36-year-old Carl Rennie at this
year’s famous Isle of Man TT. The Lancashire based rider will be
competing in the Superbike, Superstock and Supersport classes. Rennie
will ride the Kawasaki 2005 ZX10-R in the Superbike Class, the 06
ZX10-R in the Superstock races and the ZX-6RR for the Supersport events.
Rennie who has already competed for Hawk Kawasaki at Tandagree and the
Northwest 200 in preparation for the TT races scoring consistently good
results. He suffered during qualifying at the Northwest 200 but managed
16th and 17th positions respectively in the two Superbike races from
31st place on the grid.
His first TT was back in 1998 and he has since gained some very
creditable results, having missed two years out due to injury in 2001
and 2004 he is hoping to gain some strong results for Hawk Kawasaki.
Commenting he said "I'd like to thank Stuart Hicken and his team for
giving me the opportunity to work with Hawk this year. Everyone has
been working extremely hard to ensure the Kawasaki's are spot on for
the next two weeks. I'm very much looking forward to working with such
a professional team and hope that I can gain some good results to thank
them all for their efforts."
Rennie who has already been out on circuit, has already posted some
positive times despite the blustery weather conditions during the
practice week. During Monday's (29th May) practice Rennie posted the
sixth best time in the Supersport Class and was lying in fifth position
in the ultra competitive Superbike Class.
With thousands of racing fans due to descend on the Island in the next
week, it is once again expected to be a fantastic event. Rennie is
hoping to continue to show his form over the next week and secure a
handful of strong results for the Hawk Kawasaki Team.
