Nakedbike Race 1

  • 1416 - Cartwright wins by 10 seconds over Willis on the BMW.  James Van Rooyen third while Karl Corpe survived some hard attempts from Pete Smith to claim fourth place. Wolfenden sixth then it was Collins, Webster, Gibson, Middleton, Johnston, Ward, Mills, Cane, Marukic, Russell
  • 1412 - Cartwright 6 seconds ahead of Willis who in turn has 15 seconds on Van Rooyen who just got ahead of Smith and Corpe
  • 1410 - Robbie's machine has called it a day, problems just put him out of a strong third place.
  • 1409 - Cartwright leads Willis by 4.6 seconds with four laps to run.  Phillis in third place a further six seconds down with a two second buffer over Karl Corpe who is being challenged by Pete Smith
  • 1407 - One of the BMW men ran on at turn five but remained upright in this first Nakedbike race which has been reduced to six laps. The man doing the grass cutting was Stuart Fripp.  Cartwright was streaking away in the lead from Mark Willis while James Van Rooyen was in a battle with Robbie Phillis until Rooyen ran on at turn one as they started lap two
  • 1402 - The race will be re-started very shortly, the track is clear
  • 1357 - All precautions are being taken in the case of spinal injuries but I believe both riders are conscious, just the utmost care being taken
  • 1352 - Two ambulances on the scene, fairly sure it was Rattenbury and one of the riders that was well down on the grid
  • 1350 - Nakedbikes are away but Rattenbury had dramas on the line and got cleaned up from behind in a huge accident
