We'll be rooting for Victor Gilmore today who did his fastest practise lap last night 120.187mph in 18min50sec.
Victor had done 120 in race in 2006, last year was cut short in the Friday pm practise, he was taken out by Michael Weyland crash (bike hit bank and was on fire), Vic had no where to go but lay bike down which resulted in his broken collarbone.
Victor is under rated and today is only riding a STANDARD R1 as the Superbike hasn't been right since this crash at Glen Helen last year.
Shame we could see Vic's full potental on a fast Superbike.
Victor also did 118.8 on the 600.
COME ON VICTOR! Riding number 28 today as he was moved up from number 40 so that means Les Shand up the order.

Good luck Victor and a safe TT.

Fabulous news. We will be cheering from Oz, Victor. Best wishes to the Gilmore Gang.
Jan & Justine

Yes good luck Victor and all the gang !

Victor finished 22nd.He has to be pleased with that,but he won't be!

Good ride Victor - bet Trevor and the Team will have a few shandy's tonight!

Well done Victor, good luck for the rest of the TT.

Victor had to ride is superstock today , problems with the superbike, its just a pity that he lost his way on the lsat lap, took the wrong road a Braddab bridge.

Well Vic is well on a few pints now! Started early in the Creg na Baa
as he pulled in on the practise lap on the 600 with electrics cutting out ? Hopefully nothing major as Vic will go well on this one and he's looking forward to it.
Vic was gonna bump start and tour back at the end of the practise but Linds thought other wise and sent the boys out to get him otherwise he'd still be there at 10pm
Well Vic got a bronze rep today!
Michael Dunlop nearly beat his Uncle Joey's fastest lap today with
123.359 on last lap, well done!

Well done the Ballymoney boys!

Did try to catch up with Victor last night to celebrate, but neither Linds nor I could find him! As the nursery rhyme says "Leave him alone and he'll come home!"... eventually!

bRILLIANT PREFORMANCE BY VICTOR TODAY! 123.469 in 16th pLACE!

now the on VIC!!

The 600 let him down this week but where it counts he got his fastest ever lap

Well done Victor, looking forward to seen you at Skerries, try not to be last into the paddock this year........

Is this guy a millionaire, by the way?

I would think he'd have to be at £195 a visit.....
