Looks too leafy (and sunny) for it to be the IOM. Goodwood Revival would be my guess. Maybe. That's the benchmark for this kind of thing. I'm fairly sure that's not the TT road. 4 hours ago, pongo said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Declan Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 If I read the website correctly, they’re not doing a full lap of the course. They drive from Douglas to Ramsey for a coffee, then on “a thrilling drive” to the famous Creg Ny Baa where they have tea. Then on to Laxey. Still its better than the Saturday which is spent parked on the Prom. If it’s finished and not blowing a hoolie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody was suggesting they fabricated a picture of the grandstand. A fellow poster asked a question about the subject of a photo, that was said to be taken here. I have just tried to help. Sorry to crash your party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quilp Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Good link that woodster, plenty going on down there by the look of it: organised and developed. Can this Island go the same way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of it really matters and no point in anyone getting het up about a promo poster. I'm 99% certain it's St. Helier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope that the arsehole fun police don't get involved, like they are doing with rallying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are a grubby little tax haven - if you look at supposed television programmes which are supposedly going to enhance our ‘image’, an example of which Best little Prison, in its introduction mentioned the IOM as a tax haven and the TT. What other image can we rely on - Manx Cats and Manx Knobs? HRH The Chief Minister keeps spouting climate emergency and is looking at the environment at the forefront of any Government legislation. How can the TT, Festival of Motorcycling and now proposed Festival of Motoring be reconciled when we are facing such a national environmental emergency. Think of the pollution and spewing exhaust fumes polluting the Sloc. The fumes could also affect MHKs brains and interrupt their thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 The TT Motorcade should be run on a Wednesday. Ramsey to B&Q and back - led by a Dacia Duster at 38 mph and no overtaking. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
