Sunflower Trophy

[Chris666]

Anyone venturing up? (It's this weekend). Glenn Irwin, Richard Cooper and Dean Harrison confirmed entries

*Glenn on a twin not SBK, Jessop and McPint have the PBM bikes for Macau shakedown

Will likely take a scoot down to it. Weather depending.
It's miserable there when it's wet and the water tends to lie at the chicane at the end of the start finish straight.

Last I heard Glenn wasn't allowed to ride the twin either due to his contract. He's not allowed to test a Kwak until 1.1.19. Apparently PB is being a proper c-unit with the contract

 

[Chris666]

You know, that would make sense. What doesn't is the grief Glenns getting from Birdy, early contract signed at Knockhill to being a sticky cunit when he pulled the ride from under him.

*I do get bringing Brookes over to PBM though, he's got V4 experience so maybe there's TT ideas?

looking forward to it, Brother races in the pre injections. Should be a good weekend with some of the big boys coming over. Big test for Jason lynn and a few others

 

[Chris666]

McWilliams on KMR supertwin and Michael Laverty now confirmed

 

[big-lew18]

Been about the last 4 years but have to miss this Saturday. It's my bros 40th party on Sat night and working Sat morning ffs.

Friday

 

[Captain Starlet]

Anyone heading down tomorrow?

 

[Chris666]

Still thinking about it, nothing planned as yet

 

[Lee A]

that was one long ass day, nearly a red flag in every timed practice. Only managed to run 3 of the races at the end of the day. 16 races tomorrow

 

[Chris666]

I gave up after sleeping in this morning, glad I did by the sound of it ^ Not paying £20 for tomorrow, they've no mission of running all 16 and there's absolutely fvck all information of use on their site/facebook

 

[Lee A]

Was just a nightmare, sidecars went out on the last timed practice and one spilt it's guts. First race of the day (my brothers class pre injection) ran at 20 past 5. Hopefully tomorrow isn't going to be the same. Bad craic when a few top riders condemned the track while standing on the podium after the superbike pro race due to the amount of oil over it on the racing lines.

 

[Chris666]

Saw MLav have a go about it on instagram right enough, but then the colour of the grass is a good enough reason for him to not place higher.

Jezza and Glenn are having a good banter sesh on twitter though

 

[Lee A]

Irwin was flying earlier, set an unofficial lap record and should do the business tomorrow. Not a fan of Mcwilliams, comes across as a bit of a p***k
