RE: Best TT Memories.
1998 watching the Senior from the bottom of Bray Hill, willing Bob Jackson on, he came oh so close to defeating Ian Simpson on the Honda Britain RC45, going with a big a tank and a one stop plan he held a 30 second lead at his lap 3 fuel stop, but the cap wouldn't go back on, drama indeed as Peter Kneale said at the time!!

The pit stop delay levelled everything up again and going into the last lap Simpson was ahead but there was nothing in it, probably 2 seconds, Bob also had a split exhaust by then which taking the edge off the Kawasaki, to this day I don't know how he did it but somehow Bob managed to get back in front by 0.5 of a second at Ramsey Hairpin but was just lacking power over the mountain and Simpson sneaked it by around 2 seconds from memory.

Another highlight of that same race was Shaun Harris wringing the neck off Dennis Trollope's TZ250 to finish 8th in the Senior!! I have never seen anyone so committed through the the bottom of Bray, absolutely flat out and head buried in the tank!!
