The BE (Burrows Engineering)/RK (Richardson Kelly) Racing outfit were satisfied with their TT 2025 achievements, as ‘Ramsey Rocket’ Conor Cummins, gave the Northern Irish squad ample reason to be cheerful despite the persistent turgid weather, Senior race cancellation disappointment, over the past two weeks.
Tyre issues ended chances of a decent Superbike race result, but fortunes were much more prosperous in the Royal London 360, Opul Superstock races with M1000RR BMW propelled Cummins scooping top six finishes times two and BE/RK Racing’s fastest ever Mountain Course, lap speed/lap time (131.528 mph – 17 minutes 12.696 seconds).
Monster Energy Supersport races saw Cummins building experience with exotic V2 Panigale Ducati tackle, pick up tenth, twelfth place results.
Reflecting on how TT 2025, has unfolded for his team, John Burrows – BE/RK Racing Team Principal stated:
“Coming into TT I was quietly confident Conor could do a good job for us. We knew standing on that TT podium would take a bit of doing against the big four so to speak, Michael (Dunlop), Davey (Todd) Dean (Harrison) and Peter (Hickman).
To achieve two top six results on the big bikes and to achieve a personal best lap time for the team of 131.5 is satisfying, also 125.5 on a super sport machine was also satisfying, given that Conor’s size doesn’t make it an easy class for him.
I would personally like to thank all the team and sponsors that have supported us to achieve these goals at TT 2025.”
