Considering the Hunter area had about 300ml of rain the the week before States it was a bit of a surprise that the event went ahead. The pits were soggy, and as the fog lifted you could see the track was doing to form some deep lines when we cracked the surface of the mud. My starts were so off today, I started nearly every race last out of the gates and had to chase hard to work my way through a lot of riders. I had some good battles and went 5-5-8 for 6th overall today which left me at 8th in the NSW State Titles. It was outside of my goal and has highlighted how throwing away a couple of races can have a big affect on a series.
