    By far the most exciting motorsports around...crazy how small the interest is in the US with tt & F1.

    I agree about TT and moto racing in general. Real racing, lots of passing, and crazy skill in one package. F1 not so much imho. The TT guys are the craziest bastards out there....period.

    If you haven't done so pick up the classic "V-Four Victory" with the late, great Joey Dunlop. Excellent film on the IOM.

    TV coverage on Velocity channel starts today at 10pm central time nightly tonight thru June 9. Check your local listings.
    Interviews and daily recap of days racing activity. Watched it last year and thought it was definitely worth it.
    My DVR is set!
