Extract from our live transcript - It is time coded - Start from the bottom and read up

1630 - Finishing order - 1.J Stauffer, 2.Fergusson, 3.Greedy, 4.Allerton, 5. Clarke
1628 - Side by side under brakes in to Honda but Jamie sweeps across and Krusty has to let him have it, Jamie holds on to it through the Hayshed, and up through Lukey, side by side under brakes in to MG, Jamie still in front at turn 11, Krusty on his pipe, they go through 12 Krusty in the slipstream, pulls out but no Jamie gets the win!
1627 - Jamie gets the lead back at the end of the main straight, Krusty takes it back at turn two...
1626 - Krusty dives up the inside of Jamie into turn 1, Jamie had more speed but Krusty parked his Honda in there and Jamie had to give him the line, that's racing... So Krusty in front now with two laps to run
1625 - Great battle for fifth with O'Halloran, Deon Coote, Brendan Clarke, Chris Seaton and Jordan Coote all in the running for that position
1624 - Krusty closes up again a little through turn 11 and 12, side by side down the straight but Jamie holds on as they tip into turn one. Three laps to run...
1621 - Jamie back in the lead now, the Kawasaki holds it down the straight also and looks to have more top end than Krusty. Jamie pulls a couple of bike lengths around Southern Hairpin and the leading duo leave Greedy in their wake
1620 - It certainly is another Michelin showing here with this front three running away with it, Allerton is next best in fourth but over 2 seconds behind them with five laps to run
1619 - Jamie up to second and Fergusson has not been able to make a break, Jamie definitely within striking distance, hold that, Jamie is through to the lead at Honda but Krusty gets him back at Siberia
1618 - Jamie Stauffer is climbing all over Judd Greedy and it looks to only be a matter of time before Jamie can get the better of him.
1617 - As they comes around and start the second lap it is Fergusson still up front and now with a couple of bike lengths on Judd Greedy, Stauffer third, Deon Coote an excellent fourth, Glenn Allerton fifth and Jason O'Halloran sixth
1615 - And they're away, Stauffer got a good leave and has the outside line for turn one but up the inside goes the #1 machine of Fergusson, Greedy up to second place, Stauffer third
1613 - Aussie Supersport machines on their warm up lap now
