David Allingham fought back from what looked like a small error in today’s Superstock scrap to beat Ilya Mikhalchik by 0.357secs.
From pole, Allingham hit the front at the start and looked to be in control before dropping back to fourth on the second lap.
But it didn’t take him long to regroup and he hit the front again on Lap Eight of 14 and kept ahead to the flag.
Mikhalchik wasn’t letting him get away and ended up second and just 0.357secs adrift as Tom Ward was third, Josh Owens fourth and Matt Truelove fifth.
