Daniel Stauffer took the first race win, Kevin Curtain just managed to
get Josh Brookes on the line for the second race win. The battle
was well and truly set for an exciting race three.
Mat Mladin got a good
start this time and led them through turn 1, the Stauffer boys close
behind with Curtain, Baird and Brookes. Curtain quickly moved
through on Jamie Stauffer for 3rd.
Daniel
Stauffer ran wide in turn 1 on lap 2 but gathered it back up, Jamie
Stauffer moved past Curtain for 3rd, Brookes did the same to take 4th.
Mladin was still holding the advantage on lap 3, followed closely by
the Stauffer brothers and Josh Brookes. Jamie had moved past
Daniel for 2nd.
Jamie Stauffer got through on Mladin for
the lead at half race distance, Daniel also got through a corner later
relegating Mladin to 3rd. Brookes and Baird immediately started
pressuring Mladin also. Coxhell and Curtain were running 6th and
7th respectively.
Daniel took the lead from Jamie the next
lap around, Brookes right on the Bio-Magnetic pair, Mladin still close
in 4th. Jamie takes the lead again on the next time down the
main straight after Daniel touched some dirt. Josh Brookes then
squeezed under Daniel at turn 3 in a forceful move to take 2nd.
Brookes looking determined to take a win.
Josh Brookes took the
lead around the back of the circuit, then Jamie Stauffer got him
straight back. It was still Jamie from Josh and Daniel as they
got the last lap board. Josh lighting up the Fireblade on the
exit of the corners to try and challenge Jamie, then he went around
the outside in the sweeper to take the lead, an awesome move and leads
on to the straight, the bigger capacity Yamaha powered past on the
straight to take the win by one-hundredth of a second. Fantastic
race, and one in which Brookes was pipped on the line for the win once
again.
Kevin Curtain's 7th place finish was
enough to clinch him the FX Tri-State Series. He had already
wrapped up the 600 SuperSport title earlier in the weekend which means
he has taken out both titles, a magnificent performance all year from
Kevin Curtain. But not only that he put in some great showings
up the front in World SuperSport. He has definitely been
clocking up plenty of frequent flyer miles this year and gaining
plenty of seat time. Well done Kevin Curtain.
