Carl Philips 2017 Sunflower Trophy races
This weekend should be a great finale to the revamped Ulster Championship and this wouldn’t have been possible without Title Sponsor AJ Plumbing Services, Metzeler Tyres, Chimney Corner Hotel, Rea Timber Craft, Signstik, Ernie Coates and Loughview Leisure Group, our media partner Q Radio, all contributing and our thanks for their support.
Supersport has Triple USBK Champion Jason Lynn leading the super exciting class along with Christian Elkin, Mark Conlin, Simon Reid, Kia and Korie McGreevy and Darren Keys all rubbing shoulders as usual, over the last couple of rounds Jason has got his head down and made a gap to second place and the rest of the pack. Somehow this weekend could be a different story with all the guys having nothing to lose!
