Not tonight ( Tuesday), Derek. Fog, rain, darkness. Most had wets on the front and intermediates on the back, but I think it's wets all round for the last races. Still going very fast though. I hope to get out tomorrow ( Weds) and all day, Thursday.
Nice paddock walk around, good atmosphere , pity it was called short, weather is going to throw a spanner in the works at this rate, its rubbish on mainland, is the southern 100 on the same course as castletown ?, it looks fast and dangerous as it runs in the wet and mass starts, almost makes the tt look safe !,.What was your view on tt24 manxman ?
The Southern is run on the Billown Circuit, Castletown. A 4.25 mile circuit, so races can go ahead on wet rods as long as there is no standing water sitting around. It's a great event and to be honest I prefer the S100 to the TT as a spectator. As far as this years TT goes, I was disappointed with the schedule making it very intensive for competitors and the marshalls that were at their posts all day sometimes only to be told of postponements or cancellations. The bad weather couldn't be avoided, of course, but I think we need to go back to the old type of schedule where we had a mad Sunday without races, and other events in different areas to give some of the local cafes , restaurants, and businesses a slice of the cake. It was all just a mad rush.
Great vidio Many thanks
Thank you, Terry.
Great paddock tour , gives an
insight to the friendly races , behind the scenes for everyone to see , kind regards Arnie.......
Thanks, Arnie. It's more accessible than the TT paddock, I feel. The friendly races. 😉

I recommend it. Mass starts, top riders, access to paddock, lots of great vantage points. Get planning your trip. 👍
