Caught this on my phone a couple of weeks back..  Not great video but thought it would give an idea on what the roads are like over here.

There were actually 2 bike crashed, the one you see missed his braking spot due to the other crash.  The guy you see was OK but the other guy smashed his knee cap.  See how long the slow ass marshals were to lift the bike of the poor guy.

 On the very next race there was a crash even closer as Michael Dunlop got pushed wide into the hedge just after the bails.  He was OK too though.

now then Gizmocities, me and Chaos were at the Skerries,was a good day out...........................we whatch on the long up hill strait,they were coming passed us flat out in 5th gear,about 3/4 footaway,,,,,,,,,,,,ill post up some of my phone footage

[Gizmocities]

If i knew that we could have met up...  I was at Gillies Leap and down to the hairpin.  The footage is on the corner just before the hairpin.  Have been at other parts of the track in previous years, sams leap down Dublin corner is good.  Amazing speeds for the width of the road.

Shit they are close 

Where does this madness take place?

[Andy J]

Bob,

what happened on the second one with all the smoke.

The third one seems to be mostly of a mans arse 

you are worrying me now 

[zx10r bob]

hello,the one with all the smoke was the winners burn out.....................................


as for the arse well my cammera tech is pants

[Andy J]

but the bike footage was excellent pal, a big rush of adrenaline watching that for sure   

[Gizmocities]

That second video was at the hairpin, there was a small lane to you right and i was parked about 20 meters up it.  Green 10r chained to a blue 9r and a Superduke....

I think that was Cameron Donald doing the burnout.

There are even crazier races over here like the Mid Antrim 150 and the ulster GP and on roads this size and starting in groups.

The NW200 is good too, but the roads are wide etc so it is more like circut racing.

You know what they say, it take one to know one.
