Re: My Sapphire 4x4

Must be a great place to drive around, i would love to drive some of the roads you see in the tarmac rally series on t.v
And a spin on the out of town unlimited mph roads would be nice to,before the feds slap a 60 mph restriction on everything there
Cant remember who but someone was holding track day's there that was quite cheap but when i looked into the cost of getting a ferry over it became well
So Manxlad, whats it like over there on Mad Sunday then blasting around with all the bikers

Re: My Sapphire 4x4

Andy mate, 1 word.........AWESOME

Imagine it, everyone is on a mission going over the mountain section of the TT course, which they make 1 way for safety, and its fookin mayhem!!! Bikes are coming past constantly over and undertaking and often on only one wheel. Sat on a hedge watchin for a bit last Sunday, counted numerous Evos, cossies and Ferraris all givin it beans for the crowds lined along the roadside. Mate it's like nothing I've ever seen anywhere else There are thousands and thousands of bikes. Check out Men&Motors TT2003 programmes

Re: My Sapphire 4x4

I'll see wot I can do Andy ok
Hope you've got Men&Motors on now, they've got some bloody good footage. Been out on the course today, Senior Race Day but they only got the Production 600 race in and that was reduced to 2 laps Senior TT has been re-scheduled for tmrw (sat) morning @10.40, thats the big one the Senior, fast bikes. The course is 38miles long on normal roads, see the programme for wot it's like, and the buggers AVERAGE 125mph laps, unbelievable
Got plenty of pics of racing, I gotta develop and scan in yet cos I ain't got a digi cam... Check out www.iomtt.com

CheeRS for now

Re: My Sapphire 4x4

Yep i saw Mad Sunday on Men and Motors earlier
In the opening shots there was a white 4x4 Cossie cop car going along the sea front,must be old footage as i cant imagine they still run them now do they ??
There was also some on bike footage going around the course on Mad Sunday and i didnt see one German
Wish i still had my Yamaha Exup now

Re: My Sapphire 4x4

yes mate it was a well old programme we were all very dissapointed that it wasn't from the latest TT. They do have footage cause men and motors were filming the traffic on Mad Sunday right next to where we were stood on the footbridge above the road up on the mountain. Of course all the racing programmes are current footage. And no the police don't use saff 4x4's anymore
Yea that on bike TT footage is immense ain't it, look carefully and you'd hav seen us today, the Gooseneck. They are showing the Senior TT on Sunday evening or afternoon M&M so watch out for that mate!!
