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.
This cracking little class always provides good racing. Two riders to watch in this one are Mark Lunney and John Anderton, both having made the trip from Ireland. Like many of the other Irish riders here today they will be hoping to take both the points and prize money back to the emerald isle. Given the fast nature of Castle Combe, we are bound to see plenty of slipstreaming action with riders drafting past each other on the run from Bobbies to the finish line. This race could prove to be a case of which rider gets himself placed second or third on the exit of the final chicane and set up for the drag to the line.
