JM's 133mph lap - fred clarke - 14-06-2015

Great to see there's life in the old dog yet!!

Whilst the record books will show that JM set a new outright lap record in the Senior race at 17m..03.567sec at 132.701mph, which was set on lap 2 and included slowing to enter Pit Lane for refuelling.

What the record books will not show is that Lap 1 through Lap 2, Cronk ny Mona to Cronk ny Mona, based on sector timings, JM set a time of 17m..00.046sec which equates to a lap of 133.159mph!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice bit of pub ammo there, Fred.

I don't know how long John's pit stop was but his lap three time was 17:54.365 which might be close to a sub-17 minute lap of racing. Or it might not depends if the stop was nearer 45 seconds or a minute.

anyone has the sectors of John's lap record ?

I read that McPint should have beaten only the sector from bungalow to cronk

GlenHelen            4 13.395              
Ball Bridge            3 05.239  
Ramsey H             3 14.123
Bungalow             3 15.359
Cronk Mona          2 14.649
Grandstand           1 00.802

2 14.649 is better than previous 2 15.04 by Steve Plater, but in the same lap Guy Martin did 2 14.333

Think Guy was up on time all the way to cronk ny mona over John by a few tenths on that lap but lost 2 seconds coming into the pits! Luca do you have the lap times to cronk ny mona to confirm this?

It is correct: time to pits was 1:02.532 for Guy, 1.730 more than John (1:00.802).
But at the end JMG's lap was 2.340 better than Martin's, so Guy was 0.610 in late at Cronk.
