Penultimate TT race sees "brilliant" conditions

Posted : 06-06-2007

It was all go at this week's Isle of Man TT (IOMTT) races, with the penultimate challenge being won by Dave Molyneux and Rick Long in the second sidecar event.

According to the IOMTT official website, Molyneux and Long cruised to victory by 26.15 seconds, ahead of John Holden and Andrew Winkle.

The conditions for the race were "brilliant", it added.

It's the 13th victory for Moly, as he is often known, although there was a bit of drama before the race as the duo's machine failed to fire up at first.

But it was full steam ahead for each pair competition in the Sidecar TT race, which was won last year by Nick Crowe and Darren Hope in their 600 DMR Honda.

More races are scheduled for Friday morning of this week, before a parade of champions on Friday afternoon when a number of past and present stars are set to commence an honorary lap around the Mountain Circuit.
