Booked my crossing for next year already... Just can't wait all ready

I like reading Rutter's daily column on BikeSportNews. Says he took his Superstock bike out for just the 1 lap on Thursday night just as a 'runaround' lap as the Superbike lap beforehand had torn his arms off. It was 2nd quickest at just shy of 128mph.

Enjoyed the quali highlights on itv4. No Guy Martin this year

Last night, I thought it was strange not having him on the highlights last night.
The show will go on, I'm sure!

Mountain road is barely open.

Every time they open it some cockwomble runs out of talent

It's the same every single year. The coppers over there must dread this time of year.

Even the pros make mistakes!! Do wonder what the guy who came in after and hit the car was thinking though.

Can't wait for today's racing/tonight's coverage. Hope the Suter improves and also hope Bruce races the RCV. We'll see if he's really been sandbagging!!

Anyone heard any more info on the suters progress, I wasn't expecting it to be up the sharp end as such but I thought it would be getting towards 125mph average. Anstey did 123.89 on the YZR500, I know in its day that was a full blown GP bike but you could argue the Suter should be a much more modern superior machine. Does seem to be improving slowly though.

Hutchy and MD looking the guys to beat but I think a few others will wake up today.

He's definitely got more pace up his sleeve if he's gone for it

He's had a pit board on the mountain entry telling him his predicted lap time, anything predicted over 128mph he has been rolling off..... string his best sectors together from practice week and he's done 132..... its now down to how sore he is after crashing the blade.

Dunlop, Hutch, Mcpint, Anstey, Connor, Dean, Rutter, Hickman. In that order.

The logistics of the TT make it impossible to show live.

I'm guessing it would be very difficult to do live, without a huge budget, due to the distances involved. There would need to be an awful lot of cameras to get something resembling a coherent video stream.

Thought BBC had live coverage last year.

Maybe my memory is wrong.

[RemyMartin]

fking hell! DUNLOP.

Micheal Dunlop.....wow :-) records being broken today !!

[s3fella]

Incredible time from a standing start. More Dunlop family history.

Also good for the Buildbase boys, they work hard that lot and have had a few mixed years in BSB and TT. But all looking good this year for them.
