Are You Ready For Todays Racing ? - Anonymous - 04-06-2003
First up today is the 4 lap 600 Junior TT, scheduled for a 10:45 start. Watch out for Moodie (2) McGuinness (4), and Anstey (12) on the Triumphs. Will Triumph be on the podium ?
Chris Palmer (Ultraightweight winner on Monday) is out on a 250cc Honda (22), could he be up for the first place 250cc in this race, (only 10 250's out for the race).
Then we have the sidecar B race, scheduled for 13:15 hrs.
