Brilliant evening, one of the best in a long time. If Saturday is half as good we’ll be laughing. Ryan Farquhar won’t be pleased this evening I’d imagine, some result for Bonetti, says he has no money and no sponsors. Great win. Fantastic to see Mickey D on the podium and the Supersport race speaks for itself, just bloody brilliant.

Ballache after a dry week, nobody on new stuff would have much in the way of wet road setup.

Although, chance to get set for TT if there's a positve

It's actually turned out superb.. Would have been nice for Hillier to take the SBK race on the stocker, that was a clever decision to run.

Just seeing on live the mechanics swapping even the cush drive rubbers out on Glenns rear wheel... Cheapskates 😂

Good days racing eventually, including a chopper taking out a lamp post. lol
Pity about the final race, but tbh I'm ready for a feed.
Hillier was in a different time zone in the Superstocks.
7 races with 7 different winners. Who'd have thunk it.

Anyone watching the live feed hear Steve parrish reading out a message from a "Hugh Jars"? His co - commentator couldn't speak for a few mins as he was in fits laughing.

Haha heard that, can’t believe he fell for it. Very good coverage and commentary from the BBC. I like Steve Plater on the mic.

Not a bad days racing really, total disaster averted.

Was up there from about 11am yesterday. Dandered up street for a bite to eat and a bit of craic with some other bikers before throwing the leg over the bike and leaving again and coming home the coastal route with 4 friends on their bikes. Didn’t see a single race bike, which wasn’t a bad thing... 😂

Seen some lovely and some strange bikes parked up though:
