Highlights clip of the Bob Smith Spring Cup, Oliver's Mount, Scarborough. The clip is dedicated to the memory of Billy Redmayne who sadly lost his life there

I have just been watching a replay of Sidecar Racing at Scarborough.... absolutely mental on a track barely wide enough for two to be side by side without one being partially on the grass.

Yeah, love it. The sidecars are always nutters :D
You should watch a replay of the sidecar races of last years Southern 100. Now that was mental, especially in race 1
