Progress in Rookie SX1 Campaign For Goullet At Wollongong

JKAYS Elliott Bros supported Privateer Caleb Goullet executed on his game plan at Wollongong for Round 3 of the Australian Supercross Championship (AUSX), with improvements on bike set up leading to a season best Triple Crown race result with 16th in the SX1 Main Event #2 and 17th Overall for Round 3.

After struggling with bike set up at Redcliffe, Goullet hit the track with new Motor and Chassis settings, contributing to comfortability that was evident right away on the Wollongong track.

“The bike we rode at Redcliffe was too fast and the gearing had the power hitting in the wrong places. Combined with suspension, I just never got comfortable. But I knew as soon as I hit the track at Wollongong we were on the right path with the changes, it was nice to ride like myself from the Green Flag, hit the rhythms and show what I’m capable of early in the day,, said Goullet.

Posting times close to the front of the SX1 unseeded qualifying group, Goullet would transfer easily to the Main Event and the Triple Crown racing format.

Posting 19,17,16 Moto scores across the Triple Crown, Goullet posted a career best finish in SX1 in both Moto scores and his Overall for the Round.

“This is the progress I wanted at Wollongong and we may not be setting the world on fire just yet, but I’m staying healthy, even after dodging a big practice track crash earlier this week and we can build on this. I want to be in it all season and I know by Melbourne we can be closer to the Top 10 and battling with the lead privateers,” insisted Goullet.

The JKAYS Elliott Bros supported Caleb Goullet now heads to Round 4 of the AUSX Championship at Adelaide, for a collaboration event with the Adelaide 500 from the 15th-17th November.
