IOM TT

So, McG started as i assume he means to go on, although failures for both Anstey and Martin took the edge off that race.

Anstey's Padgetts Honda dropped a valve and the generator packed up on Guys TAS Suzuki...Anstey announced he would make up for the dissapointment of that by doing a 132mph lap in the Senior :eek:

I would like to add that the RC30-esque paint on McG's bike is stonking

, and give a big thumbs up to Conor Cummins, to even be back on a bike after what he did last year, let alone racing again this year...balls of big steel!!!

Don't watch this if have any sympathy for the human body!!!

That crash is horrible! The bike just lets go on him.

The highlights have been good so far. Shame guys bike didnt do so well!

Im routing for guy to win a race this year.

Can you imagine first lap of practice at race speed going through the verandah and just getting on with the job???, jeez. And as for Guy, i honestly believe, when he gets one...he'll win more and wonder what the hell he's been playing at before!!!

Yup, you get the feeling if Guy didn't have bad luck, he wouldn't have ANY luck at times...i'm not sure he could have troubled McG but a podium would have been a good start to the week.

And as for the slow-mo's, heres hoping for more of this sort of stuff, so good to watch...

In that vid at 1:55, that's the dip McG went through yesterday. Bike was all shapes!

Bottom of Begarrow, taken at about 150mph or something as mad iirc...

Has anyone else seen TT3D: Closer to the Edge?

Saw it on Sunday and I have to say it was amazing, definitely worth paying the extortionate ticket prices
