Update from ZIP Racing/PAR Homes

Date: February 24, 2025

What an end to the 2024/5 French sand series… but  more so,  a terrific start to the 2025 season.

Le-touquet , 50TH Anniversary

2700 riders pass through there in the 3 days of racing, a 57,000 anticipated crowd over the weekend, televised to millions all over the world, the most prestigious race for me in the calendar. 

Well over 400 quad starters

Harry had a p18 first lap but was unfortunately lacking some  straight line speed and battled with many too frequently. When they re-passed back down the 3 mile straight until the going got rough n tough, for me in the pit, after an hour and 20 mins and holding p6 now was now Harrys time to shine. Super fit ,super  strong and a determined mind set , pulled him through to pick up the last slot on the podium and tick yet another awesome box in his arsenal of finishes this year! His second podium in the sand season and eluded of the 3rd one with a snapped chain resulting in a DNF.

With 600 points up for the win, it’s a lot to loose, it seems Harry has clawed back a further 550 points this weekend to 6th overall in the sand champs, and would have possibly podiumed all bar the unfortunate DNF. 

Harry, I feel, as modest as he is , has firmly put his name in the record books these last few years – to firmly impregnate himself as one of Europes  most talented ‘all round’ riders for many years. Proving himself in multiple disciplines, rarely replicated, and he is looking to have an awesome  following and future in the Quad Scene. At 26 years of age, a bit of home UK grown talent who has achieved this through sheer hard work grit and determination

Already off training this weekend , to prepare for the 25 season on hardback.

Thank you all for the continued support, however it comes, it is very time consuming and costly to be good at what we do, so it is very much appreciated by Both Harry and – helping him excel in his chosen field.
