Alongside sealing feature race and F1 Superbike race 1 honours, Taupo’s Scott Moir additionally today at Paeroa chalked up a new course lap record of 44.401 seconds, on his way to finishing second within the second F1 Superbike encounter.
0.417 of a second behind race winner Daniel Mettam, a new outright lap record concluded a truly tumultuous day at the ‘Battle of the Streets’ meeting for the Suzuki New Zealand racer.
