The new NCR MILLONA ONE SHOT 07 was the weapon of choice for the first round of the Canadian R.A.C.E. Heavyweight Championship at Shannonville, Ontario Canada.

Following a great win at Daytona by Walter Bartolini in the Sound of Thunder, the motorcycle jewel went up to Canada to compete in the regional championship. The motorcycle was ridden by Derek Vammus who had ridden the 06 version to a big win in the last race last year.

In the Heavyweight Class, the track record was 0:57.12 in this tight demanding track and Derek was able to qualify in the front row with a best of 0:57.30. During the race, Derek took the lead from the first lap and never gave it up except for a brief moment in the second last lap where former champion Jim Proulx on his 4 cylinder Kawasaki superbike passed him in one turn but Derek quickly leaped ahead and stayed there after a hard fought battle. In the process, Derek turned a best of 0:55.93 which was more than 1.1 seconds faster than the previous lap record!!!

Congratulations Derek !!!

Stay tuned because round 2 is on May 18-20!!!
