Michael Dunlop is Southern 100 solo Champion; Klaffi and Sayle take sidecar honours

Michael Dunlop took the solo championship race by the scruff of the neck and ran with it this afternoon.

Guy Martin and Ryan Farquhar were left to pick up the pieces as Dunlop left them trailing in his wake.

It was a start-to-finish race for Dunlop who held a lead of over four seconds at half race distance and set a new outright lap record 112.541mph.

It was a similar picture in the Petrochem Carless Fuels Sidecar Champion race where Klaus Klaffenbock and Dan Sayle set up an early lead and held it to the line.

En route to victory they set a new lap record of 98.824mph.

At the line they were 10 seconds ahead of Simon Neary and Jason Crowe, Ian and Carl Bell fought hard for third place.
