Michael Dunlop underscored his status as the king of Armoy after the home hero won the ‘Race of Legends’ showpiece for a record 10th time.
The Ballymoney man’s victory in the finale also wrapped up a five-timer, with Dunlop unbeaten in every race he started. His haul of wins included doubles in the Superbike and Supersport races and victory in the Supertwin event.
Dunlop missed the Co Antrim meeting in 2022 after withdrawing following a dispute with the organisers, but he announced his return in style. Yesterday, he completed a Supersport brace after winning Friday’s opener.
He added another win in the Open Superbike race from last year’s man of the meeting Davey Todd before later capping a spectacular weekend with an emphatic success in the headline ‘Race of Legends’. This takes his total Armoy tally to 29 wins.
Elsewhere Cork man Browne rode his Burrows Engineering/RK Racing Honda to victory in the Moto3/125cc class, establishing a new lap record at 90.755mph as he did so.
David Bell was a comfortable winner of the Classic Superbike race, with Andy Hornby, Barry Davidson and Richard Ford classic race winners and Anthony McCarroll grabbing a double in the Senior and Junior Support classes.
