Comments: Ashworth fell bend 3 lap 1 when in third and chasing Parker. Masters moved out on bend 1 baulking Parker which caused Ashworth to clip his back wheel. Wooley finally decided to drop the clutch when the others were on bend 2. Ricky up and ok but excluded. Delay wile the track is graded.

Re-Run: Parker tried a cut-back on bend 1 but it failed miserably. Masters clared off to win with ease. The highlight was young Wooley doing well to not hit the fence bend 1 lap 2 when he was a few millenia behind the front 2. Deinite contender for most boring race of the season!! Th wife is so bored she's invented her own scoring system. For a win you get a well done, for a last or fall you get the tag of dopey *expletive* ...which is what she put next to Ashworth's name LMAO!!
With 1 ride left, Nemo has 11 points, Alden & Masters are on 10, whilst Barker & Ashworth are on 9.

Line-up: Jason Doyle, Seb Alden, Ricky Ashworth, Kauko Nieminen
Comments: Nemo down bend 1. Fell on his own. Up and ok, but excluded.
I wish the in-field announcer would keep his trap shut until the heat has finished. Annoying that he gives commentary on the last half lap of lap 4. Ffs man, I've got eyes, I can see what's going on!! Rant over!!!
Re-Run: Alden's bike packed up as the tapes rose. From the gate and too easy for Ashworth. That just beat heat 16 to the title of most boring race.

Comments: Harrison round Wölbert down the back straight on lap 1. Wölbert under Harrison off bend 4 lap 1. Harrison back round Wölbert on bend 2 lap 2.

Semi-Final: Barker, Nieminen, Alden, Doyle. 61.3
Line-up: Ben Barker, Kauko Nieminen, Seb Alden, Jason Doyle
Comments: Ashworth & Masters await the top 2, in the final.
Barker from the gate. Doyle almost got round Nemo bend 2 lap 1. They were side by side going down he back straight but Nemo gained the upper hand going into bend 3. Alden then came from nowhere to go round Doyle bend 4 lap 4 and snatch third.
Squall: *expletive* meeting. Hope Ricky wins cos he's ours but other than that I couldn't give a flying *expletive* Track has been a disgrace.
FINAL: Masters, Ashworth, Nieminen, Barker. 61.7

Comments: Masters from the gate. Ashworth round Barker bend 1 lap 2 then rode his nuts off to catch Nemo and go round him bend 2 lap 4, there was nothing between them at the finish.
