Sloan Frost stars in first round of Superbike seriesAndy McGechan/BikesportNZ.com Wellington's Sloan Frost (Suzuki GSX-R1000A), was the biggest winner in the glamour Superbikes class at Ruapuna. It was a drama-filled weekend for the opening round of the 2018 New Zealand Superbike Championships in Canterbury, with edge-of-the-seat racing in all the various bike categories. When the engines were turned off late on Sunday afternoon, there had been three different winners in the premier Superbikes class and just one point to separate the leading three riders on the championship table. Wellington's 2016 national superbike champion Sloan Frost seemed to take a while to get going, but, once he was warmed up, he was very hot indeed. The NZGP title winners were: Frost (Superbikes); James Hoogenboezem (Supersport 600); Hamilton's Jordan Burley (650 Pro Twins); Cain (250cc Production); Rangiora's Tim McArthur (Supersport 300); Huia's Nathanael Diprose (Superlites); Heaven (125GP); Goodwin and Dunlop (Sidecars).
