Auckland‰Ûªs Karl Power (22), Hokianga‰Ûªs Mitchell Nield (16), Whitby‰Ûªs Rory Mead (20) and Tokoroa‰Ûªs Sean Clarke (39) revealed themselves as the men to beat this season when the dust cleared at the second of six rounds in this year‰Ûªs series, held inland from Porirua, just north of Wellington, on Saturday.
Power (pictured above) and Mead, in particular, will take some beating as they each recorded their second straight wins in the Yamaha-sponsored series.
Power (Husaberg FE450) won the day outright at the steep, dry and rocky course, just off the Haywards Hill Road, and is now six points clear of Waverley‰Ûªs Wayne Neilson (Yamaha WRF450) in the battle for honours in the expert over-300cc four-stroke class.
‰ÛÏThe first special test today was a bummer,‰Û
