Pirovano and Hale for sixth -' with Crafar in between. In the final laps, Slight
settled for a nine-second win, leading an
equally solitary Corser, and then Chili,
who had finally succeeded in shaking
off Gobert.
"1 still had the rear wheel spinning
too much and the front was pushing a
bit," Slight said. "Fortunately, though,
the temperature was about the same as
during first qualifying on Friday, which
allowed us to choose the ideal tire."
Second-placed Corser was having
problems of his own: "The gearbox kept
jumping out of second into first," said
Corser. "Which was especially a problem in the hairpin, because there it's
very important to get away well. So I
lost some time there every lap."
Gobert came home fourth. ''I'm pretty pleased with this race," he said. "It
was definitely better than the first one,
among other things because of a better
start. The changing of the setup after the
first heat also helped."
Crafar finished fifth, in front of
Pirovano and Hale. Crafar suffered from
a poor start, but from then on everything went better. "Starting has been a
problem for the Hondas all year. Aaron
(Slight) has an updated clutch, which
minimizes the problem a little bit. I only
hope to get the same eqnipment for
Phillip Island. The main problem during
the rest of-the race was the temperature.
It got up to 97 degrees (206F); the hot air
even came through my leathers and
burned my legs."
Hale had gone out again to get some
more practice with the men he'll race
against full-time in 1996. His lap times
were quicker in the second race as he
started to come to grips with the Ducati
V-twin after a season on an RC4S in the
AMA Championship.
Goddard gained some more points
by finishing 13th. "Nothing much to
say, really:' he said. "1 just went round
and I got quicker every lap, but everyone else was still faster than me."
