A pair of former world champions, 1993 500cc GP king, Kevin Schwantz, on his first visit to the Revival, and two-time World Superbike title-winner, Troy Corser, were among those contesting the Barry Sheene Memorial Trophy. The battle during the early laps, though, was between former MotoGP racer Jeremy McWilliams on a Norton Manx, Beau Beaton, riding a Vincent Rapide and Adam Child on a Matchless G80.
Beaton proved the quickest and was able to hand a sizeable lead over to partner Craig McMartin that they were never to loose. McWilliams was to fall off and the Child/Clive Ling Matchless to drop back leaving second place to be fiercely contested by Glen English and Sheene’s nephew Scott Smart, who had taken over the two Norton Manx of Steve Plater and Glen Richards respectively.
