Special mention should also be made to the Norton team, with both Johnson and Brookes finishing in six and seventh place.

It wasn’t such a great race for either Michael Dunlop or Guy Martin however, with Dunlop retiring with bike problems early on, whilst Martin fell – unhurt – on the first lap.

The Superbike Race Results in full:
1.Ian Hutchinson – Tyco BMW
2.Peter Hickman – Smiths BMW
3.Dean Harrison – Silicone Engineering Kawasaki
4.James Hillier – JG Speedfit Kawasaki
5.Dan Kneen – Penz13.com BMW
6.Michael Rutter – Bathams BMW
7.David Johnson – Norton
8.Josh Brookes – Norton
9.William Dunlop – Temple Golf Yamaha
10.Martin Jessopp – Riders BMW

I read this on the internet and I wondered about the 6th and 7th place finishes. It looks like 7th and 8th. Either way , great job boys !
 
The racing goes on until June 9th . We will hear more good news hopefully .
 
From the Internet : Josh Brookes ended his 2017 Isle of Man TT races campaign in the best possible fashion when he took sixth place in Friday’s Senior race. And the Australian recorded two laps in excess of 130mph, with a new personal best lap of 130.883mph which he says should silence the doubters. - See more at: http://www.bikesportnews.com/news/news- ... 8xUgM.dpuf
 
Seemed to be that the instructions were to finish and not worry about all out speed. Makes sense, as they now have data to they can improve upon.
 
Hello Madnorton , Keep us posted if you please. The information from the IOM TT only seems to come out in bits and pieces . Not much on the web right now.
