Should have known a denizen of Carmentown would misread that ....... my education in Tawa included that which you speak of, never fear .........

Ask the Chow about "Tardis Juice", which was the spot of choice this morning !!!!!!!!!!!

Thats how its done! Congrats Jake, that 600 superstock ride just got 1 step closer!

I heard a rumour that World Superstock was going to be fazed out with the Supersport class rules going to a more standard spec under Dorna management.... Wonder if that would mean a full WSS ride????

Sam better pull his finger out if he wants to get anywhere near his top 3 goal!

young aussie Zac Levy was floating around 4th too, he was out here for a season on a 150 a couple of years ago and looked like he was heading somewhere with riding.

3 young guys just got a huge "wake up call" introduction to european racing. I believe one of them will rise up during the season........... the one who can handle the pressure

The people who have been behind Jake Lewis always knew they were on a winner...... its not all about riding......its how you approach your riding

Too right, Jake has always been modest, well mannered and fast. He has done the hard yards back home and it has paid off.

I was wondering why he had chosen to go to the euro 600 last year but after chatting to him at the nats he explained the shortfalls of the KTMs they had chosen...

Lets hope the success can continue

Video of the race is up on youtube, natural sounds no commentary

Excellent, hard racing by Jake. Good to see he's figured out the slipstreaming stuff - don't be the first to pop out of the slipstream, be behind the first guy. He also consistently got on the brakes later than anyone else.

Shame there wasn't any commentary cos it was a cool race.
