I can also vouch for Big Al at Redline. He worked at Max Power, didn't have a clue about modified cars and also said they were all prize plebs :lol: He left and went to Redline and loves it.

Paul = :thumbs: Goood lad :lol: Let me know if u get a reply :D

How the fuck can you compare the TT which is a properley organised motorsport event with marshals, safety and radio crews to a ned fest organised by Lax Power?


The majority of deaths at the tt is due 2 spectators driving like pricks after watching the races. Point is ppl race like dicks all the time over in the lsle of man... so leave them 2 it

Also i wasn't talking about putting a speed limit on ppl in the tt :lol: it wouldn't b racing then, would jus b like f1. :wave:

The TT is an organised event & extremely popular. Do you see things like WRC Rally's & such sticking to speed limits when they use regular B-roads n such for there courses?? even if there was a speedlimit, the TT being the event that it is, they would still be allowed to go at it like they do, as it's all closed off to the general road users & safety is always considered!

this shat-power thing will just no doubt be a bunch of nobs wrapping there car's round tree's & buildings!

At least the ferry fares are pretty expensive - should put a few Kevs off :lol: Know what you mean though Gambit. My village is on one of the AA's so-called 'best 10 drives in the world' and every year there's a few streetracers that come out and end up wiping themselves out on one of the hairpins

They'll manage a lowly 60mph gettin up the mountain and a tasty 89mph coming down (wind providing) :lol:

it'll be a nightmare as location is the very north of the island so they'll have to travel the length of it to get there

the police will have a field day with them though
