Ht1 From the gate
Ht2 From the gate,and excellent team riding from the Poole lads.
Ht3 Smith quickly away,with Bates having to work hard to pass Pickard,up the inside.Hart tried just about every line on the track to catch up,which did with an excellent inside burst off the pits turn.
Ht4 Poole lads were away quickly,but Glanz caught up and passed the slowing Johnson after 2 laps.In the pits it was discovered that they had left the choke on.Not amused with his mechanic.Dads eh?!!!!
Ht5 From the gate.
Ht6 With Johnson leading,the Newcastle pair dived hard under Hughes entering the third turn,with Hughes falling and being excluded.In the reun,Johnson again jetted away from the start,with Smith all over him for 4 superb laps.Inside and outside,Smith was easily the faster rider,But Johnson held his nerve,to earn a very well deserved victory.
