Good find Hoff, I seriously expected him to win pulling moves like that but it also goes to show how much control he had on cold tyres over the big bikes but once they got in the groove it was a diferent story....... amazing to watch

That was a brilliant race to watch, just a shame Foggy didn't make it onto the grid & the Norton shat itself.

Yeah, goes to show that horsepower wins out over the long run (if there are any decent straights).

This whole race made me think of the road racing series in NZ I watched a 600 cane all the thou's... but it was a very short track (45 second laps). I have it on video and am converting to AVI, will chuck it on bittorrent as soon as I get a chance...
The world is round. It has no point.

What happened to Gary Cowan, he rode the wheels off that 250cc, great stuff. That guy should have been on a GP bike.

The wheelies by Haslam were a bit of a wank...GBP200k 500cc GP Bike vs a prod 250cc :roll:
