Won by Percy Tait and Malcolm Uphill, the first man to average a 100mph TT lap on a production machine.

Don't they have tyre issues with a 20min BSB race now. Think how many tyres will be needed for a 500 mile race.

A few of us on here did the Donington 1000km Race last year. Most are signed up for the 8 hour race this season too

Unsurprisingly we all run tyres that will last at least one session, rather than super sticky ones that fall apart after 20 mins.
