Adrian Archibald, William Davison and Ryan Kneen were close behind with all three lapping at over 113mph and it was Lee Vernon, Ivan Lintin, Russ Mountford and Ben Wylie who completed the top ten.

In the concurrently run 250cc session, it was Davy Morgan who set the fastest time, his lap of 112.981mph edging out Rob Barber for pole position by just one tenth of a second.
