Stats: Fastest Oliver’s Mount, Scarborough Racers 2019-2020

Since returning to the pure road racing calendar in 2019, Oliver’s Mount, Scarborough has quickly re-established itself as one of the most prestigious, acclaimed road race circuits worldwide.

Despite the absence of 1000cc machines, the pace around the tight, twisty ‘Mini TT’ in recent times has been nothing short of astronomical.

Last September’s Gold Cup meeting, saw Dean Harrison, Lee Johnston take Supersport competition around the Mount to new levels with both on multiple occasions bettering the existing middleweight class lap record.
