How awesome to rewatch this - I was there that weekend

This is brilliant! Why? I’ve got a RC30 that I’ve only just put back together after more than a decade of not running. Hearing them again in their proper enviroment is music to my ears and brings back so many memories of that era.

great racing from 32 years ago. Remember it well. were some really great riders in that field to. WSBK has been an awesome series, the best!

30 years of passion!!! ...thanks...

Great video, I've been looking for live commentary of the 1988 Manfeild round for ages! Some very rare footage of the 1989 round at the end too, that was the year that the championship had no promoter so there was no official TV coverage.

Thank you for digging this out and posting it Stu. Remember that COLD and rainy day rather well.

Best AMA Superbike years were 1977' to 2006' Best WSB was from 1988' to about 2008' Lots of Big names we all knew and no electro-gizzos on the Bike to help the riders !!! Just skill and Big Balls !!! 😆 🏍 👍

Proper vhs..have a few like that myself.. Well done .

Great memories!

For me, the poor quality adds to the nostalgia :D Apart from that, super nice stuff! Thanks!

Great track & I think they went onto Oran Park after this round where Doohan lapped Merkel & the field.

Love this races

Is this Davide Tardozzi guy the same Davide Tardozzi that manages Ducati alongside Gigi Dall'igna in MotoGP right now?

That pre-race 2 crash was extremely costly for Davide Tardozzi. Before NZ the top 3 in the standings were: David Tardozzi (86) Fred Merkel / Fabrizio Pirovano (83.5) And after NZ?? Merkel (99) Pirovano (93.5) Tardozzi (91.5) Tardozzi would never win another World Superbike race again and he would only finish on another 3 podiums

Thanks.

Looks like ducati wasn't serious about the championship this year. Not many bikes or riders at least they should go to oz and nz and compete. With tardizzi out pirovano out who knows what would happen. U got to help the luck a bit.

@5:18 Pirovano said he wished that Tardozzi and Merkel would fight each other so he could win, then Tardozzi twisted his words in the translation, saying that Pirovano had wished they crash together ...

Robert holden

Big mi stake for duca ti not to send riders to last 4 races
