The Dynapumps Superbike Championship got proceedings underway, with Sam Clarke (RS 36 Suzuki
GSXR 1000) on pole, having unofficially lowered his existing lap record to 55.37 seconds in practice.
When the lights went out Clarke went straight to the front, but it was to be short lived. Exiting the Basin he suffered a massive crash which left him with a sore shoulder and back and a very beaten-up motorcycle. Full credit to Team RS 36 they managed to get the bike back together within an hour so Clarke could be on track for the remaining two races. Cameron Stronach (Motorcycle Assist Yamaha R1) inherited the lead for 7 corners before he crashed in exactly the same spot as Clarke, his bike suffered major damage and he rode his spare bike in the remaining two races. From the restart it was Ben Stronach (VRT Signs Yamaha R1) who took the win from Adam Senior (Cully’s Yamaha R1) with Jack Langley (Coxon Mechanical Services Yamaha R1) in third place.
