Fatal accident in Mondays supersport race
There was a fatal accident during this afternoon's Supersport Race.
ACU Events LTD says that 65 year old Bob Price from Stroud in Gloucester was killed following an incident at Ballaugh on the 3rd lap of the race.
Bob, a car body repair shop owner, was an experienced road racer who first competed at the TT Races in 1992 and competed regularly in the Manx Grand Prix as a Classic racer.
Highlights of his Mountain Course career included 3rd place in the MGP Junior Classic in 2002 and runner up position in the same year in the Senior Classic.
He also achieved third place in the 2004 Junior Classic MGP and took part in last year's inaugural Classic TT Races.
The ACU wishes to pass on their deepest sympathy to Bob's family and friends.
The Coroner of Inquests has been informed and an investigation into the circumstances of the accident is underway.
