Three minutes and three seconds. On a 250 two-stroke, on the Mountain Course. His rival did retire, but the shape of it — close the gap in the pits, then break away — is exactly the way I've watched races won. Don't sleep on Loughlin's 113.524mph either. He moved Moodie's 1993 record for the first time in 33 years.

Seeing 250 two-strokes still out there racing gives me slightly complicated feelings.

The ZXR400 was just an ordinary street four back in the day. Now it's a record machine.

Loughlin's 113.524mph — what amazes me more is that Moodie's record stood for 33 years.

Tom Snow's 103mph on a 125 for sixth overall is quiet but seriously impressive too.

Three minutes three seconds is an enormous margin. Can an RS 250 really pull that clear?

His rival retired mid-race, so that figure isn't purely a gap in pace.
