Someone once told me the TT is the last true motor race in the world. The only place when real men, race real machines. Some of the scenes there are seriously terrifying. Neko.

I've watched that at least 6 times. These boys run an asphalt ribbon @180+.

The fine line between power, speed, centrifugal force, traction, adhesion, mass v velocity, gravity, and blunt force trauma, seems to get a little hazy for them.

All the respect in the world to them, but they're absolutely insane. There is some very blunt unyielding objects just a few feet from them........

Nothing at all like a nice groomed racetrack with large runoff areas..Tuff track.




You can see a million miles tonite, but you can't get very far.
