Hugh Skidmore sped from the tapes to lead heat 1 but Hynek Stichaur was
left standing. Shane Parker blasted around Charlie Gjedde out of the second
turn and the Tigers open an immediate four point lead. Simon Lambert took heat
2 by a margin but Ashley Birks had to ride a tidy line in second place, one
mistake and Tamas Sike would have been through. Jade Mudgeway was a long way
behind. Ricky Ashworth was leading heat 3 until his bike expired on the second
lap. To add insult Emiliano also stopped on the last bend but he coasted home
for the point. Lee Complin led heat 4 but Josh Auty was on his tail and pulled
off a spectacular pass on the pits bend on the third lap. Simon Lambert dived
past Jade Mudgeway on the third turn on the last lap to extend our lead.
Ricky won heat 5 from Lee but the interest was on the scrap between Hynek and
Emiliano for third place. Hynek went very wide allowing Emiliano to pass him
at the end of the second lap, and then bounced off the fence on the second turn
of lap three, but jumped straight back on. Tigers lead stands at eight points.
Shane dived past Lee on the third turn to lead heat 6 but Hugh had to settle
for third place. Kozza Smith was on a tactical in heat 7 but was passed by
Josh on the inside of the third bend of the first lap. Hugh led heat 8 from
Simon until Hynek blasted into second place on the pits turn. Emiliano led heat
9 from Lee. Ricky passed Lee on the third turn, but Lee returned the compliment
on the second lap. Josef led heat 10 from Hugh and Kozza picked off Shane at
the start of the second lap. Tigers ten points ahead.
Charlie led heat 11 as far as the third turn when Josh dived past. It was
a pretty close run race until Josh eased ahead on the third lap. Ricky trapped
ahead in heat 12 and Simon's outside blast took him into second. He lost both
places going too wide into the third bend. Kozza dived past Ricky into the lead
at the start of the second lap, but Ricky swooped past out of the second turn.
Kozza got him back on the third lap and pulled clear, while Tamas and Simon
were elbow to elbow for third place. Great racing. Josh rounded the field to
lead heat 13 from Charlie, Shane and Lee, but dropped a chain at the start of
the third lap. A tremendous outside run by Shane at the end of the third lap
was rewarded with the lead as he passed Charlie at the start of the last lap.
Emiliano rounded Josef out of turn two to win heat 14. Josef led heat 15 from
Hugh and Kozza until Shane dived into third place on the third turn. He then
followed his team mate home stifling Kozza's every move.
Comfortable win despite the gremlins. Shane seems to be settling in nicely.
