ASTWOOD Bank ace Andy Tinsley's superb start to British Superstock Series continued with a solid fourth place at one of his least favourite tracks.

But the demanding rider pronounced himself dissatisfied after climbing to fourth in the rider's championship at Thruxton.

Tinsley qualified sixth on the grid after being baulked on his crucial lap but climbed the field to post another impressive finish and he is optimistic of bettering the result at Oulton Park in Round Four in a fortnight.

Teammate Luke Quigley limped home last after crashing out but Redditch-based rivals Team Legs 11 posted their best result of the season with lead rider Kelvin Reilly ninth.

New recruit Gary May continued his undistinguished season further down the field.
