Craziest road race on earth.

Had some friends that have raced in it. One of them, Mark Miller, was an HBO 60 Minutes type spots show talking about it.

Nothing to see here... move along

Coolest shot in that video is at the 3:45 mark. That's just a flat bad *** shot and takes some real talent to pull off.

Sphincter checks at 5:08 and 5:15 :)

My friends that use to say you just ride a motorcycle around a track, that's not tough... LMAO
 
These guys must clank when they walk from them big brass ones.
 
Incredible! These are some truly talented riders. I'd love to go there just to watch and pick up a bunch of swag for my garage.

You all know that they've been racing the TT at Isle of Man since 1905, right?
 
I went and spent a day at the IOM in 2011. Just incredible. The video's are awesome, but as amazing and insane as it looks in the videos it really doesn't give you the full picture on how FAST those guys are going on the "track". Just little European roads, with fences, hedges, walls, potholes, bumps, curbs and buildings. I sat down at the bottom of Bray Hill for a couple races, just amazing.

One of the last true races in the world IMHO, in any motorsport.
 
Another video that makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up..165 mph on one wheel around a corner...

Had a friend that raced there years ago on a Yamaha OwO1, said it was by far the most fun he ever had on a race track.
