Karl Harris dominates first days practice on the smt honda.Harris has revealed that smt have fitted the engines that Leon Haslam uses in world superbikes.

[Rod Richardson]

I'm glad for Harris but the 2nd session was red-flagged with10 mins to go which is when riders at the pointy end usually record their best lap times so I wouldn't break out the champagne yet.

Correct Rod,Camier had only done a few laps when he crashed and was unable to complete the session and then it was red flagged near the end to clear up after James Hillier had crashed the Buildbase Kawasaki.Todays role for pole will give a better idea as to how fast Harris is.
