Junior Manx GP Next Up - Anonymous - 27-08-2003 The Junior Manx Grand Prix is due to start at 13:15 today. Don't miss it. Who's In For The Win ? - Anonymous - 27-08-2003 Since Ray Porter has had to withdraw with a damaged shoulder suffered in an incident at Ginger Hall, this now must open the door to local Man Tom Clucas who was second fastest in practice. However he will be pushed all the way by Phil Gilder who just pipped him in the final practice session. Others to look out for are Dave Bell, Andy and Alan Jackson from Preston and another local rider Paul Corrin who has shown great promise recently. Maria Costello is out in this race, hoping of course to make herself the fastest woman around the TT circuit by beating Sandra Barnetts time achieved in the TT. Maria is already the fastest woman in the Manx. They're out & warming up - Anonymous - 27-08-2003 The bikes are out on Glencrutchery Road now warming up, with Chris Kinley diving in and about the riders getting some pre-race interviews. It's looking good for a start at 13:15. Delay Announced - Anonymous - 27-08-2003 The race has been delayed by 15 minutes due to a non related race incident at Sulby. Hopefully we will get a start at 13:30.
