NW200

Post by Lutin »

Apparently, Davy Todd has been ruled out of competing in the NW200 this year as he was not declared fit after his crash in Daytona last March.

Todd ruled out of North West 200

Practice opens at 9:45 on BBC NI

Storm Stacy reckoned the wind dragged on his brake lever so much that it cooked his brakes and he couldn't stop at Metropole!

Storm Stacey taking two wins - the Superstock and the shortened Superbike race.

Not bad for a newbie.

I'm impressed. Always thought he was a mid-pack poser.

I'm also guilty of thinking that at first. But Storm's father committed suicide and the whole 'hat' thing is to raise mental health awareness. He seems a sound fella.

I also heard amongst a few spectators over the weekend that he promised his dad he wouldn't ride the TT, hence the appearance at the NW200.

Dunno how true it is

What a showing though and Dunlop with a sped trap of 212mph is just bonkers. First 15 riders through the speed trap in the Superbike class between 204 and 212mph :shock:
