Sulby straight - 206 mph by Bruce Anstey in 2006 practice.
Thankyou wiki.
I'm loving the sound of the twins. What's the spec? Apart from 2 cylinders that is..
Had my email read out by the commentary guy who isn't Steve Parrish.

Had my email read out by the commentary guy who isn't Steve Parrish. I think that speed by Anstey may well be dubious,it was based on the teams datalogging not caught by the official speed trap. No one before or since has cracked 200mph at the speed trap.

There's apologies on the streaming site - highlights tomorrow and updates in the feed below - but looks like the fun is over for today.
Is it on the radio anywhere?? - if I can't watch, Listening will do. . .
