Did'nt hit the 120mph, but the course is still damp, Bruce saying he had to hold it back a wee bit.

It is too bad that Lightning had to pull out.  I would have liked to see if they had made any advances to their 218 model during the past 5 years.

I figure this thread is a good excuse to drop this photo in.  I have a bunch of actual IOM postage stamps, so I scanned them at high resolution and laminated them.  So when I get sick of looking at Bill Ivy, I can drop in Mike Hailwood or Joey Dunlop or a Moto Guzzi V8, etc.
