The White Cockade Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Great win for Michael Dunlop in the first race - lap records on first two laps First factory BMW solo win for 75 years Bruce Anstey smashed the lap record with an average of 132.2 mph - on a public road circuit!

red21 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Been watching the ITV4 coverage - that onboard footage from the Anstey lap record was incredible. The margins these riders are working within are frightening - an inch the wrong way and it's trouble. Sad news about the two boys that lost their lives over the couple of days.

The White Cockade Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 yes sad couple of days but as they say the boys have gone doing what they love Anstey's lap was incredible and he lost quite a lot of time in a few places so could have been even quicker its impossible to imagine how they can go so quick in those surroundings and through bright sun and almost darkness under the trees as you say an inch or two out and its all over these are brave boys just going out to marshal again now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
