Top quality racing without the long delays between races usually associated with National events. All MRO events run to the same timetable and are therefore easy to understand and enjoy for both riders and spectators. Qualifying takes place before lunch, with the riders having to work to earn their place on the grid. The whole race package is then scheduled to fit into 4 action packed hours through the afternoon. No sooner has the podium been cleared from one race then the next race is off on a warm up lap.
All races are single class with no mixed grids to detract from the spectacle.
These bikes are large capacity production bikes with no tuning allowed and therefore very close to the bikes ridden on the roads. Close racing has always been guaranteed until the advent of the Suzuki GSXR 1000, which left everyone else playing catch-up. Championship leader Dave Johnson started the year on a Yamaha but has now converted to Suzuki power. Mark Rollin is currently proving that the Yamaha is not out of the equation yet, he holds second spot in the championship. Both riders made impossible dives up the inside right on the apex of the 100mph Camp Corner which looked certain to have both men on the floor.
