Lougher takes two TT titles at Billown

by isleofman.com 13th June 2009

It was a fantastic end to TT 2009 for Ian Lougher.

The Welsh wizard dominated Saturday's racing on the Billown circuit, winning the Motorsport Merchandise Lightweight and Ultra Lightweight TTs.

The races were run over two 8-lap legs in superb conditions in Castletown.

Lougher broke the lap record three times on the first leg of the 125 cc event.

Having retired in that first leg Castletown rider Chris Palmer won the second by a comfortable margin, but that wasn't enough to stop Lougher taking the title.

The TT veteran admitted Palmer pushed him all the way early on (play audio file):

Seond place in the Ultra Lightweight TT went to Roy Richardson, with William Dunlop in third.
