Jean Bruno Pastorello and his team mate Pierre Carlier won the Mark Hahn 300 race on a brand new Kawasaki 300X. The French Team well known for its Off-Shore Endurance experience put a unique show on the beach with its outstanding preparation, pit refuel team and special prepared race craft. Pastorello was initially fourth after the completion of the first lap but soon after Warner and Rius experienced all sort of problems he managed to take the lead and he was the only one (and his team mate) that completed the 30 lap race. Pastorello actually gave the first win to Kawasaki and its 300X in this international race.

At Mark Hahn 300 race the 16 year old Indonesian Aero Sutan Aswar was the first Yamaha rider who completed 25 laps and finished first in his class, he won the Iron Man award (since he rode solo) and also got a seventh overall aboard his R&D prepared Yamaha VXR (Stage 1 kit). This proves not only the durability of the new Yamaha but also the race proven results, the durability and the good quality of R&D products. You will read a complete report of R&D’s Stage 1 kit for the VXR soon under the Race Tests section of this web site. A perfect race debut for the R&D supported rider as well the Yamaha VXR.

R&D has recently released the new oval shape air filter that was specifically designed for the new Yamaha VXR. This filter mounts directly to the Mikuni throttle body of the engine and increase fresh air consumption. The R&D filter kit will unleash low-end, mid-range, and peak horsepower trapped in the restrictive stock air box. The exclusive lightweight filter design couples to the OEM throttle body through a tuned built in velocity stack. The engineered oversized Tear Drop plenum, delivers the velocity and cubic air volume needed to add power. Power Plenum Filters generate the maximum airflow and volume. Performs well, sounds good, looks great, and will install in minutes. Kit comes complete with all necessary hardware. If you combine it with a reprogram ECU which alters fuel delivery and ignition timing you get more pout of the 1800cc natural aspirated Yamaha engine. Available already from R&D.

Kawasaki has just released the Ultra 300X at the West Coast dealerships and Jettrim has already introduced its new design of seat covers for the powerful Kawasaki. We actually spotted the very first unit at Body Beach on race prepared Ultra. It featured a pattern of three different materials and also carried extra stitching on top. Jettrim’s new seat cover provides better grip and enhances the overall aesthetics of the new Jet Ski. We expect to see soon Jettrim’s brand new colors for the Red/Ebony color scheme.

The 16 year old kid from Indonesia Aero Sutan Aswar was spotted in Body Beach testing the Yamaha VXR which was especially prepared by R&D for him prior racing it at Mark Hahn 300 race. The young kid plans to race it solo in this 300mile race. His race craft is equipped with a Stage 1 kit from R&D according to our source it produced enough power to reach the top speed of 71-72mph. If the water will not get rough the young kid will have a good chance to finish in a very good position. Aero is being supported by R&D, BNI, and Celebrity Fitness.
