With entries now closed for the Manx Telecom Post TT Road Races, fans and enthusiasts can look forward to an exciting programme of races with a top class entry having been received.

Top of the list is William Dunlop who achieved a hat-trick of victories at the Manx Telecom sponsored races in 2010, bringing his tally of wins at the Post TT Races to four was one of the first to enter for this year’s event with 125cc and 250cc Honda two-stroke machines, the 250 being supported by his brother Michael and the Wilson Craig 600 four-cylinder Honda.

However, the Ballymoney man won’t have everything his own way as two regulars at the Post TT Road Races with 18 victories between them will be trying their best to thwart last year’s maestro taking the chequered flag first.

Ian Lougher with 11 wins at this meeting so far, has entered three races on his 125 Replicast Honda and a brace of Kawasakis, a 650 sponsored by Stewart Smith and his Blackhorse supported 600.

While his long time rival Chris Palmer who has seven victories at the Manx Telecom Post TT event will re-new their friendly rivalry with the ‘Manxie’ riding the Mannin Collections 125 & 250 Hondas.

Dan Sayle, the current Sidecar Champion Passenger will be having an outing on his pair of ‘lightweight’ Hondas and will be mixing it with William, Ian, Chris and the other two-stroke specialists entered including the other Dunlop family racer, Sam.

Davy Morgan will have a 250 Honda at his disposal along with the 600 CSC Branson Yamaha to challenge his fellow Ulsterman William Dunlop and 2010 Senior Manx Grand Prix winner Si Fulton, plus Ian Lougher, Mark Buckley, John Burrows, Ivan Lintin and another ‘veteran of the Billown circuit’ Paul Cranston, who is enjoying his 34th racing season !
