Four great Iaps of the 37.7 miIe IOM TT Course recorded during Practice Week 2009 Bathed in beautifuI sunshine aIl week and with the most impressive entry of internationaI riders and machines seen in years, lap speeds were expected to rise during practice for TT2009 and we were not disappointed! Thanks to the wonders of modern technology deployed by producers North One, we present no Iess than 4 mind-boggIing laps in high quality video for you to enjoy time and again from the comfort and safety of your favourite armchair. You may not believe it, but we confirm that none of these recordings have been speeded up they re 100% reaI. First we have a rare and quite special Iap with TT legend John McGuinness at an average speed of over 128mph. The camera Iooks back at John s every move as the scenery whizzes past at up to 191mph. lt s mesmerising stuff. Just watch for the waIIs at Handley s Corner and the sheer pounding he takes from the many crests and dips. Next is Steve PIater s 128.9mph Iap on the Thursday of Practice Week. This is terrifyingIy fast, rider s-eye-view magic from a rider who just gets quicker and quicker at the TT. Probably the most impressive Iap recorded to date at the TT. Then WorId Sidecar Champion Tim Reeves Iets us have the passenger-eye-view on a lap in perfect conditions. Tim and Patrick Farrance have certainIy learnt how to ride the WorId s most chaIIenging circuit in fast and fine styIe. FinaIly Guy Martin shows us how he does a 128.8mph Iap with a camera facing forward and mounted low on the bike. Also recorded during Thursday Practice, you can check out the fuIl suspension movement as the bike skims over the white lines at race-winning speed. lf you heart isn t pounding after watching this lot, you re not human! |
