Waters Racing brothers Brodie and Nick Waters have continued their solid run of form in the third round of the Australian Superbike Championship at Queensland Raceway last weekend, finishing toward the front of the pack in the Supersport and Superstock 600 categories respectively.
The talented teenagers again impressed in the development at a national level in Australian road racing, with 18-year-old Brodie claiming second overall in the Supersport class on his Sunstate Motorcycles-supported Suzuki GSX-R600.
Following on from his race victory at Darwin‰Ûªs second round, Brodie qualified second in the Sunshine State behind factory Suzuki rival Troy Herfoss, going on to finish in the runner-up position in both 16-lap races around the 3.12-kilometre circuit.
Brodie trailed Herfoss by 2.568 seconds in race one, before missing out on the race two victory by just 0.645 when the race was declared prematurely on lap 12 due to an incident down the field.
A fastest lap of 1:13.224 by Brodie was the quickest in the race, now sitting 19 points in arrears of Herfoss in the championship chase at the halfway point.
‰ÛÏI was disappointed when I didn‰Ûªt get pole considering I was only 0.2 off Troy, but we‰Ûªll keep putting the pressure on him and see if we can win both races from pole at the next round,‰Û
