bLU cRU Oceania Junior Cup Race Two
OJC competitors were then first up on the card to kick off Sunday proceedings at Morgan Park with their second six-lap bout of the weekend.
Ethan Johnson and Hunter Corney the chief protagonists early on as Elijah Andrew and Hunter Charlett gave chase.
Nikolas Lazos then crashed that party to move through to the lead on lap three.
Hunter Charlett took the race lead late on the penultimate lap to take the last-lap board two-tenths ahead of Nikolas Lazos and Ethan Johnson. Charlett had timed his run to perfection as he managed to sneak away from his pursuers on the final lap and keep them at bay all the way to the chequered flag.
Ethan Johnson showed Charlett a wheel on the last lap but couldn’t get through and was actually then bested to the line by Nikolas Lazos, who got a great run onto the main straight to steal that second place.
Hunter Corney just missed the podium by a bike length, but crossed the stripe three-tenths clear of Jai Strugnell.

Hunter Corney made up for the disappointment of missing the podium in the final bout of the weekend with victory by a nose over Ethan Johnson in the final encounter.
