TT 2012 (2)

#1 PostAuthor: Bill Newman » Mon Jun 11, 2012 1:53 pm

With apologies to Will for copying the title...

This is the fourth time I have tried to download the pictures of my week at the TT - now realise how useless Photo*ucket can be.

Arrived at Ginger Hall, a TT themed pub - think Squires with good beer.

Image

Image

Mad Sunday was a washout so down to the front at Douglas - still stormy

Image

Spotted a big 1300

Image

A kettle in Heron colours

Image

And a well modded thou...

Image

On Monday went to Bungalow on the Mountain

Image

Image

Nice tribute to Joey...

Image

Then back to Ginger Hall for some closer action

Image

Image

Ramsey sprint on Tuesday - Run what Ya Brung on the promenade. This GPZ was quick over 1/8 mile

Image

Norton(made in 1939) was given the beans all morning

Image

This Piper Kawasaki was disappointing - consistantly slow at high 9s. A 650 Bandit was beating it with ease...

Image

Hayabusa was the fastest I saw all day

Image

Sidecars on Wednesday

Here is the rest of it.

McGuiness in action - so fast I could not get him

Image

But I got the retirement


Image

Unusual 350 four outside the pub

Image

VJMC Rally in Castletown

Image

with a 89000miler Z1000 taking part

Image

And this???

Image

The noise at the end of Sulby straight is akin to shock and awe...

Image

Off to the Creg on Friday - no racing but plenty of beer...

Image And clocked a nice H2 on Saturday at the pits just before the Lightweight Race

Image

All in all there are worse ways to spend a week, even when it rains :D

Some great photos :D

Suspect that the Piper Kawasaki was disappointing partly due to the extra "ballast" it seems to be carrying :shock:

Z1B (in Z1A colours), Z1000A1, ZRX1100 C4, Suzuki TS125J (being restored), Suzuki T125J (in boxes), Garelli Rekord MKII (awaiting restoration), most of a Garelli Rekord MKI
