Jake Moss finished 10th in the mud-filled final at his home round in Wollongong.

CDR Rockstar Energy Drink Yamaha newcomer Jake Moss left last weekend’s Wollongong round of the Monster Energy Super X series frustrated with his 10th place finish, vying to improve in the final three rounds.

Moss was again a victim of the rain-soaked track conditions, unable to display his true form, but certainly not prepared to give in as the series’ vital final stages approach.

A top three in his dry heat was a solid start and his holeshot in the main event was even better, until he stalled in the first corner.

“It was another tough night and not what I’m capable of,” Moss said. “The first turn fall put me a long way behind the field.

“From then it was a matter of just putting my head down and trying to pass as many riders as I could before the finish.

“The way I raced was better than last week but I’m never happy with 10th in any race.”

Moss managed to salvage 10th place on the night and maintain his 10th place in the championship.
