Such a shame that Josh Waters had to miss after still suffering concussion-like symptoms from his crash over a month ago. Unfortunately his title defence is now gone. Obviously it's been helpful for Bryan Staring (who is riding great regardless) and Maxwell is still within striking distance.

Old man Curtain still showing the young blokes the quick way around, which is a bit disappointing. Woulda rather seen Herfoss dominate and Waters Jr sadly had a disastrous one.

Gents,

Thumbs up for all efforts in this topic, I'm spread pretty thin these days and don't get in here nearly often enough - but when I do drop in (or want to find some results) this place is more reliable than anywhere else on the net :)

Good to see Kev Curtain still ripping it, but yes we should be seeing the young(er) talent coming up...

Thank you too. Respect for Curtain what he still can do at his age.

Excellent work Rod, usually faster with results here than on the official ASBK site!

Bryan Staring has hit some massive form! 5 in a row is a very impressive run. Big shame that Shannon Johnson was given a 10 second penalty and relegated from 4th to 8th and a bigger shame that Jamie Stauffer came together with Stauffer and finished 17th. Still really disappointed Josh Waters isn't up to riding, it must've been a helluva knock to his head.

Nice to see Brodie Waters bounce back from the previous round but didn't quite have enough for fellow Suzuki mounted rider and championship leader, Troy Herfoss. Chris Casella continues to do a terrific job on the Triumph and it's also nice to see former Red Bull rookies Dylan Mavin and Andy Lawson Jr coming through the supersport ranks too.
