Nakedbike - Race One

Unedited transcript from our live notes page that was run during the event

• 1340 - The race has been declared and the results taken back to the end of lap six so the results will be as follows
• 1338 - Red flag is out
• 1337 - Kruck is ahead of Cartwright... It will be a drag race to the line for second place between these two... McMartin will be the winner
• 1335 - McMartin has escaped now, the battle for the remaining podium positions though is a cracker with Cartwright, Kruck, Charlton and Roe all in contention
• 1333 - McMartin in the lead now and enjoying a 2.4 second buffer over Cartwright who in turn is under attack from Kruck, Charlton and Roe
• 1330 - Cartwright in front now, Charlton must have made a mistake as he has slipped to fourth. McMartin closing on Cartwright... Roly Kruck running third, only 1.5 seconds cover the top four
• 1329 - First Nakedbike / Pro Twin race of the season underway now. Defending Champion Jon Cartwright has jumped ship to Benelli this year from the dominant Yamaha and has been showing good early form.  Yamaha instantly responded by putting Scott Charlton on the spare bike left over from Simon Rattenbury's 2006 season and Charlton has been setting the pace in the qualifying sessions and at the end of lap one only 0.024 of a second separates Charlton and Rattenbury!
