Well now. Robert Dunlop has just broken the lap record and won the 125 class at the NW200. Of course, having been out of the game for some considerable time, due to surgical work, he would not be eligible to race at the TT or MGP...

So you are saying is that Robert Dunlop will not be allowed to race the TT this year?

Just shows what a load of rubbish the new "licence" is. Thank God the Irish have more brains than Parker. :roll:

That, Colin, is a very dangerous generalisation :!:

In response to Lee, Robert wouldn't have been doing the TT as the 125cc race was dropped from the programme.Robert only competes in the small capacity classes nowadays due to the arm injuries he suffered in a TT accident,which restrict his movement and strength. It just goes to show though,that the ACU are totally out of touch with the real racing world :roll:

Doesn't it just Hilary :oops: :oops:
After looking at all the new chicanes at Mallory I remember saying to Spooner " These'll be great practice for Ramsey Hairpin!"

Thanks.

So who is the first top guy to be kicked in the nuts with the new rule?

Shaun Harris

That is a crying shame.

Is there no appeal tribunal?

Surely a rider of his stature would have a case to put forward.

believe me, Lee we have tried.. have a look back through the messages on the board and you will see what he is up against. Shaun will definitely not be at the TT this year, and the TT will be the poorer for that.
