    what can you say...perfect road conditions and no other cars about...why not?

    Oh hang on...it looked damp and foggy! Did seem to be taking some big risks to himself and others.

    Those cars tho....make me melt!

    Not totally outrageous, but taking enough of a chance IMO. Personally I wouldn't take corners like that, on the road, but everyone's different.

    Where was it, IOM TT mountain section? Never been...

    yeah that's the tt course, I guess he knows the road quite well but, imo he's taking some big risks with the tighter corners and damp and foggy conditions.

    yea he defently knows it well, but think he is going in blind on a few of those corners, if a fast car/bike was coming the other way it could catch him out.

    I didn't think he took that many risks. Yes he was going fast but it looked very controlled to me. Even as he was just about to come off the mountain he took forever to get past the jag making sure it was clear. And when he did come up to oncoming traffic he was able to pass safely on his side (bit quick though lol)

    any thoughts on the car?

    another Porsche I think, or maybe a Skyline?

    How did he get the telemetry on screen btw?

    I've got a feeling it's to with there being no speed limits on those roads.

    Certainly this goes on during the TT, 'Mad Sunday' and all (though Mad Sunday is one-way IIRC) - Phatty may know for sure whether it's no speed limits year-round.

    got to be good to blast past the cops at over 100mph,

    seems to favour stone roses/Ian brown tracks in his car....not my cup of tea really,

    not sure the police can be seen to be "racing" with the public even if its on deristricted roads.

    I'm pretty sure its no speed limits all year round.

    iirc, evo mag took an Ultima there and said it was no speed limits...
