How exciting was that race until the crash split them all apart. Can't remember the name of matey on the blue GP but he was riding really well to overtake Josh and catch the front runners.

was it Steve Connelly...or his Brother?

Strange how when people talk about great scooter racers, Stuart's name rarely appears, but I think he has held the No1 plate on 9 occasions.

He's also a top bloke full of enthusiasm, and a bit of a hero for being black-flagged at an open practise at Mallory when he "leant" on an R1 whilst over-taking it around the outside at Gerrards* (a scarey corner).

Happy days, you've got the throttle wide open, hanging on for your life and some young kid on a 'ped goes past you making you look like you're standing still and lapping you in the process.

thats pretty good stuff considering the gearing limitations of an auto and some the other scoots have more than double the cc
