Mike Soderland got off
the line well on lap one of the 6 lap and very wet race but John Lyons
led the charge out of the chicane. Soderland then ran off the
track on the inside slow right-hander. Lyons romped away from
there and led by over 6 seconds at the end of lap 1, 2nd placed rider
Craig McMartin at the end of lap 1. McMartin closed 3 seconds on
Lyons during lap 2. Rob Carrall was 3rd from Dave Fuller and Geoff
Jones. As they commenced lap 4 McMartin had the gap to Lyons
down to only 1 second and was closing fast. Dave Fuller had
slotted past Rob Carrall for 4th, Geoff Jones 5th, Peter Hinton 6th.
McMartin took the lead on that lap and immediately pulled out a second
ono John Lyons. As they got the last lap board McMartin had now
pulled a gap of 3.6 seconds on Lyons while further back Carrall
had got his 3rd place back from Dave Fuller. McMartin took the win
by 4.2 seconds over Lyons.
