How well do you know either Dundrod or Mondello Park? Or to be more accurate, how fast can you lap those circuits and at the same time beat the experts?<\/p>\n

A Room2Race computer simulator will provide the answer at the Adelaide-backed King\u2019s Hall Motorcycle Festival this weekend when fans will be able to pit their wits against guest riders in the Nugent Hall.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s good to get the punters involved with some live activity in Belfast,\u201d said show promoter Billy Nutt. \u201cDuring Friday afternoon and all day Saturday we will have qualifying sessions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe grand final will be on Sunday when the public will be able to go head-to-head with the likes of the British Superbike champion Tommy Hill, Isle of Man TT specialist John McGuinness and Steve Plater who has won seven-times at the North-West 200.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cOur own Alistair Seeley who is the British Supersport champion will also be on the grid so-to-speak along with Macau Grand Prix specialist Michael Rutter, Manxman Conor Cummins who is a former Dundrod lap record-holder and hopefully Michael Laverty who will be part of the Honda team in this year\u2019s British Superbike championship.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cBallywalter\u2019s David Lemon, an accomplished 125 cc rider, is the man behind the race simulator.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cSo far as the fans are concerned the best two will receive VIP tickets to the final round of the Adelaide Masters series at Mondello Park while \u00a3300 will go to the winning rider.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWe will have two of these simulators which will no doubt throw-up some interesting statistics.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a huge social occasion,\u201d added Nutt. \u201cWe have more than 70 exhibitors and that coupled with a large classic display, an auto-jumble and acrobatic demonstrations by some of our top trials riders means that there is something for everyone.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cAndy Perry who leads the Irish trials championship will be performing some daredevil stunts while British championship motocross contender Martin Barr will also be in attendance along with Comber\u2019s Tommy Merton who is the current Ulster MX2 champion.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThere will be a display of the new EVO motocross bikes thanks to the involvement of Lawrence Spence and the Knock club.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Hill is due to declare the show officially open on Friday (10 Feb.) at 2pm and it will run until 10pm.The opening times for Saturday and Sunday are 10am to 5pm on both days.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
