Blows the superbike class wide open
Seems they've been offered treaded rears instead although I thought some of the front tryes gave bother at the NW as well.I'd say the Metzler guys are rubbing their hands...What do Dunlop riders even do at this point? Is it feasible to start testing another tyre and setting the bike up for it.
Heard someone say that Metzeler had been flooded with requests for slicks but didn't have quantity to cater for it? That might be wrong... PR disaster for Dunlop whatever way things work out now...What do Dunlop riders even do at this point? Is it feasible to start testing another tyre and setting the bike up for it.
Dunno what's happening in Dunlop HQ, but it's not the first time that their QC has let the side down.Heard someone say that Metzeler had been flooded with requests for slicks but didn't have quantity to cater for it? That might be wrong... PR disaster for Dunlop whatever way things work out now...
Just bought my TT live pass there, looking forward to it this year, really wish i could get over for a day or two but the steampacket timings are damned awkward.
If anyone know anyone taking passengers over in a rib, etc, PM me please

There are flights over daily BUT normally very hush hush because unless they are commercial rated pilot. Someone carrying paying passengers flying with only a PPL is proper ****ed if caught.Is there not a wee airport in Fermanagh? St Angelo's or something is it called? Bet there's guys flying to the TT from there; might be worth asking. My dad went over in a wee plane from Ards there a few years ago.

They busted a pilot in Ards a load of years back. He waited until after the airfield was unmanned to fly back a load of fellas but the cops were sitting waiting for him.
RIB's from Bangor, D'Dee are flat out all week also.

Is the live pass the only way to watch it?
Brilliant race yesterday.Fair play to Dunlop he put the hammer down on that last lap.We were standing on the start/finish straight on Saturday giving off about Davy not being allowed to start the Superbike race due to reduced numbers.Can't believe 2 days later and he's gone.Best sport in the world IMO but f@@k me it can be brutal.RIP Davy..Unreal supersport race between Dunlop n Harrison....sad that a 3rd rider has died our own Davy Morgan r.i.p
