Isle of Man TT: The last true test of Man and Machine

DateTuesday, October 16, 2012 at 11:40AM

About a year ago, we posted a hauntingly beautiful video about the Isle of Man TT.  Autoblog just posted this much more up-tempo video, which is equally spine tingling.  If you want to know what the human mind and body are capable of when pushed to their limit, just watch this. Sorry about the music, by the way.

Bear in mind the Ulster GP, is perhaps on a par, if not better as a spectacle, as it is a massed grid, and with a race schedule of 6 races in a day...Also it's got the fastest average speed of any road race. The TT is unbelievably long though!

It's the most insane thing I've ever seen. Well, maybe not, but it's certainly makes the short list.

You are never prepared for how fast the fly-bys are.
