Kiwi, Bruce Anstey on the Padgett/Valvoline YZR500 wins the IoM Classic TT F1 class leaving all the other 750cc four strokes in his wake.
In the process sets a new lap record for the class.

Lap record at 123.894 mph.
What is the 250cc lap record, John McGuiness in 1999 but I can't find the speed?
The TT database is useless for anything but race times and positions or current lap records.

Yes , what a great occasion yesterday was , here in the IOM , 2 races in the same day won by proper race bikes .....the 350 won by the MV ... a repro , yes , but still a proper race bike , then Bruce's magnificent ride to win the Classic , against the Suzuki alleged cheats .......not in the spirit , IMHO , but the first time for many years proper race bikes have won
I'm sat here 200 yards from Bray Hill , can hear the modified road bikes out in the Junior , but just can't be arsed to walk to the end of the road to watch , sad state of affairs , or is it . The Lightweight lap and race records held by Richard Quayle from 1999 at 112.71 and 114 .80 , 250 Honda

I was actually referring to the TT 250 lap record by McGuinless in 1999. Lougher did over 117 in 1990 on an 'A' which I believe was the same one he rode for Brian yesterday.
Lougher had done 122.93 in 1999 on a V twin NSR Honda 500.
I am listening to the 'supertwins' race mostly those ghastly Kawasaki with a sprinkling of TZs and RSs with the 'lightweights' being Honda 400s with again a sprinkling of 125 RSs and Beerat on a TZ125.

After looking over the bikes in the 'Lightweight' class.......that sure is a screwed up class.

It is in the database toneyed, although I concede entirely that it is not the easiest to navigate. It's 19.18.20, 118.29mph or 190.37kph in French.Lap record at 123.894 mph.
