Track Records

Recommended Posts

Stoke, for some reason, has 3 different TR's

 

Overall TR: 60.5 - Ty Procter and Steve Johnstone

NL Track Record: 62.2 - Richie Worrall

CL Track Record: 62.0 - Andrew Tully

 

Take your pick ;)

 

Doesn't Andrew Silver still hold the all time track record at Stoke?

Yes, but we can in theory discount it because the track has changed shape and length since then.

 

In reality, the track was made marginally shorter, and Silver rode a 59.1 if memory serves.

I don't want to discount it Vog, Andrew owns that record fair and square and probably will do for a long time to come and I hope it always stands as something riders aspire to better.

In any case, if the track is shorter, the times should be faster, but are not by a mile. Certainly, I doubt Andrew's Godden (if that was what he was riding that day) was anything like as powerful as todays GM's, but that is opening another can of worms entirely.
