...sends chivers up my spine, what's left of it.

For clarity, even though I did the track - and it is indeed a very dangerous one, it was not as a competitor on the day.

It was a very wet race, that had to be cut short for safety concerns. The rain was actually taking chunks out of the fairings somewhat akin to bullet holes - and by this I mean clean bullet holes through the fairings!:C

Mind blowing!!!!:o:o:o

Not for me!!!:no::no::no:

When I was a kid the radio was tuned, permanently to ABC. We would listen to the broadcasts as we ate breakfast.
Thinking back I guess they were recorded and edited excerpts. Triumphs and Nortons ruled in those days!

When teaching in Broken Hill I had a student whose family were motorbike nuts. I went round there a couple of times
and the father, a really great bloke, had tape recrdings of years worth of the TT races. It wasn't unusual to hear them
blaring out for hours on end!!!
