Wizards's and Flying Scotsmen

What a great day's racing. It all looked a little shakey to start with, what with the weather and the absence of Steve Plater but once it got going the sizzling hot action soon dried out the track. Great to see McGuinness get another Superbike win and a superb double (could have been more due to slow starts /Ìý shortened races) for the wee wizard from Carrick Alastair Seeley. How popular was he when the gloves came off and flew up into the crowded grandstand?

Hutchy rode well all day and I have never seen anyone so disappointed with a second place in my life but it definitely gave him the inspiration he needed to go out and win the 2nd Supersport race in a most un-Supersport fashion, by a country mile.

Lastly hats off to Keith Amor, with what was probably the worst way possible to go about preparing yourself for the NW 200 (splitting with the JMF team, only picking up his Supersport bike and suspension for the 1000cc BMW the weekend before and arriving at Portrush without a wheel turned in testing). To not only qualify so well but to take victory in the Superstock race is outstanding. Living with Johnny Rea must be rubbing off on him, watch out everyone at the TT.

And so to the NW200 predictor game, all you armchair know it all's, how did you all get on? I suppose top bragging rights must go to Teamac, but then again if I had topped the list then you would be shouting fix!!! We'll see next year!
