After this race, Dunlop said he would keep his “head down and continue.”
He did so completely. Although he was the last roll of roll for his first victory, the next race was more controlled.
ALASTAir Seley helped him on the network with a mechanical issue, and the competitor Peter Heckman exceeds Chican in the opening lap.
Todd seemed to withdraw from the foreground, but Dunlop was wandering around and witnessing a case at the University of Corner, the eighth passenger who was absent from the braking in the bosom of the penultimate.
Although Dean Harrison accumulated pressure, he did not have an answer and Dunlop returned home in first place with a few seconds within reach.
“I have proven tonight that I am still quickly. It is great, I knew it would be difficult and I knew that the race would be hot and heavy,” he added.
“The boys have worked hard to prepare everything, and I appreciate it. I haven't won a long time and it was a kick on her face, so winning again is another weight of my shoulder.
“I didn't come here completely decent for a long time, but we overcame it and won the two -night race.”
Twenty -five years after his death, this year's North West 200 was one of the celebration of the legendary life and legacy of Joey Dunlop, which Michael overlooked to get the Isle of Man TT record last year.
But on Thursday night, it is time for Michael, the son of Joy, to enjoy his success while the sun was on the northern coast of Northern Ireland.
With six other races to come on Saturday, it may not end yet.
