Michael i think everyone that runs them brings generators - all you hear all day is the delightful sound of bloody generators.

It's all exciting.
We've got to leave for the TT early Friday morning and both our bikes are completely in bits and waiting for parts!

Not waiting for carbon mate!

Michael, don't worry about tire warmers, track seems quite good for grip and not too abrasive .

You wont want to use tyres warmers where we camp anyway as by the time you've got to tarmac you'll have half a ton of mud and gravel stuck to your tyres

For sure, Carbon is here and looking epic.


I agree on warmers, I didn't use mine, too far from the adamantly area, they hold you for ages and there's plenty of time in a track day session, not likes its quali or a race.

lol so true.
besides it will be either 30 degrees and seriously unbearably hot - or pissing down so hard you will need a Yamaha FX1 to make it to the pit lane
