Isle Of Man TT

Anyone going to be following it? I think after the racing at the North West this year it's going to be a real dog fight. 

You can watch it all live here for about $24 https://ttplus.iomttraces.com/products/tt-live-pass-2023

Isle Of Man is only time trials right or do they have an actual race?

Looking forward to the races. Was thinking about getting the TT pass. Coverage sucks in the US.  Anybody tried the TT pass in the past?  Does it just stream on a website and then you can cast it from your phone to your TV, much like MXGP does?

It's a time trial, 10 second intervals! I think half the field would die on the first lap if they set off like they at any other road race. 

And motoman I had the pass last year and it worked really well. You can download the TT+ app if you have a smart TV or watch on games console. If not you can cast it to your tv.

Cool and thanks for posting. I probably will get it and watch. I've never watched the actual event. I just watch highlights on YouTube.

Thank you much. I looked on my Apple TV and it is not on there but got the app on my Xbox and Sony TV. All set to go for Monday. I ended up with a stress fracture in my leg so the doc told me to stay off of it so I can veg out in front of the tv and catch all the races. 😀

I watched the preview show. I can’t believe how much history there is behind the race. Also how spec these bikes were/are. Super cool. I’ll do my best to tune in.

Last year there were 5 deaths, think that the total, including a father son on a sidecar.

it seemed like thoughts of banning the race were happening.

The thoughts of banning  it never come from the isle itself , or the racers. ,  but there is no doubt that some people incl in the Mc industry would have it stopped if the could

Exactly how I feel.

The deaths are extremely sad without a doubt, and it's likely at least one competitor will be killed over the coming two weeks. 

But I find that something so dangerous being allowed in this sanitised world full of tossers in high visibility jackets and clipboards who seem to relish telling other people how to live their lives refreshing.

I think he will match or pass Mcguiness this year. Seems fitting as well that maybe the person who breaks Joeys record is another Dunlop.

I can't watch 'em either. I don't wanna watch someone die. That said, I agree that it's kind of cool in this pussified world that insane shit like this still goes on unapologetically.

Good Lord.

End of Superbike and Supersport Q3 and Harrison, Hickman and Dunlop all into the 133s. Really impressive stuff, they are pushing hard already. 

I wonder if we'll be seeing 135s by Friday.
