Whanganui motorcycle ace Tarbon Walker has unleashed after lockdown and is tearing up the track in the lead-up to the upcoming Suzuki Series later this year.
The 21-year-old featured prominently in the first serious event at Hampton Downs since lockdown, winning four from four in his class last weekend.
A
good turnout of riders - about 40 in some classes - proved this was a long-anticipated event.
Walker, riding in a mixed class of 600s and superbikes (1000cc), won all four of his races in his Supersport 600 class.
After consistently good starts he kept in the front field for some time and had a tussle with former superbike rider Jayden Hassan for second place in one race, but had to bow to the power of the larger bike and yielded the place in the final lap.
