I may be able to get there as well, some of the guys I know are doing GP250's this year in MRO. Andy Sawford will be there with his new RS250 H0nda, fully kitted with HRC parts and 95 rwbhp!
Will hopefully see you there aswell then Monty! With the new MRO format over 2 days could be interesting races. Some get 2 races on the sunday as far as I can see (125GP/250Gp and 2 others).

That's interesting-I thought that the MRO were going for practice Saturday and 1 long race Sunday for the GP classes to align with the actual GP's.
Had a text from Jays mum earlier. First race on Duke after minimal testing. Qualified in pole ahead of 2 BSB riders. Then in first race managed 2nd in between the two BSB riders.
Jay came 2nd in first race on sunday and broke lap record. Beaten by Michael Pensavalle who is BSB(??). Then in second race of the day Jay had a crap start and was down to 9th at one point but battled up to 5th and catching 4th when front went into Graham Hill. Strange seeing it as he was going to right and front went left. Same place his team mate went off in race 1 (Steve Iles).
Under new rules it appears his position and points depend on his overall position over 2 races. ie. 20 points would put him about 6th overall for day so he gets 6th place points which would be 12(??) or maybe x2?
