Yeah he ran off in race 1 to finish in 15th. He was 7th after the first part of race 1 when the red flag came out, not the best round. I'm sure he'll learn though and come back strong next month.

Just got a txt from Dave and he says it was a low speed low side with the only damage being the tank.Crikey...sounds crazy out there!

Hey guys,
That was my first ever 2nd row which was cool. Its super competetive over there. My bike is a Aussy supersport spec. The same bike I used in NZ but now has YEC camshafts. Its no slower than the factory yamaha bikes over there,thanks to Dave Cole Specialist M/C engineering. Next round is Tasmania so lets hope for some good results there! Thanks for the support people its much apreciated:yes:
