Anstey in North West 200 four-timer
Kiwi Bruce Anstey served up a five star performance for 150,000 delighted fans at a sun–soaked Kennedy International North West 200 with four podium finishes from five starts; this included a first ever international victory for the all–new GSX–R600 Suzuki in the Supersport class and a start to finish demolition of the opposition in the Superstock class on his TAS Suzuki machinery. The TAS Suzukis also topped the speed trap times in every class around one of the fastest road circuits in the world.
Coming from a winter of mountain bike training, Anstey arrived at the North West 200 with what can only be described as ‘an afternoons testing’ at a local circuit and a handful of races at the Tandragee 100 national road races. Nevertheless, the TAS Suzuki pilot put his TT rivals firmly in the shade with a scintillating performance.
