Saturday Superbike predictions - jolly7 - 04-06-2016
Actually beneath the headline MD and IH mega practice speeds somewhat surprised how many of the other contenders are off their potential pace given the perfect conditions.
Has to be so much more in Hickys tank ? Biggest sandbagger of the week ?
Dont think Bruces usual superbike turned a wheel all week which must mean he sees this this new bike as some weapon to surprise everyone on raceday ?

I think the old superbike was the one Bruce stepped off the other night at Kepple Gate.
Difficult to know how sore he is but - I reckon he's the one with a bit in hand. That said I reckon John and Connor are both too smart to show their full hands in practice. Hicky will top 130 but the pace is going to be hotter than hot. I still reckon that both Hutchy and MD will push harder than any of the rest so it'll be theirs to lose.
It's a long way at full noise so I reckon reliability will come into it so I'm punting that Bruces bike will have an issue (the old 50p part of course
). Hutchy
MD
McG
Hickman
Cummins

I peg Hutchy for the win. MD comes in second place. And McG comes in somewhere around 5th or 6th. It's so tough to say. The practice results this week have blown my expectations away.

in reply to original post
bruce was out on the fireblade most sessions and it was actually the fireblade he came off
as for pediction well i havent got a clue but id never discount john bruce hutchy or michael but theres about 4 more at least in with a shout on level grounds never mind if the big boys fail to finish

Whatever it is, it's going to be an amazing race.
I think this first one will go to MD. He's been fierce this week. Hutchy will give him a run for it.

Go boys!
Safe rides all round.

I'll change my picks.
MD
Hutchy

That's my guess. Oh wait, there's only about 2 minutes left in the race...
