Hi there RickyD, Welcome mate.
No ive never been to the IOM but would love to go as ive recently started to take an interest in road racing. The TT, NW200, i would love to know more about them all. Ive just bought TT superbikes game for the PS2 and its amazing. The gameplay, graphics and physics of the game are (unfortunately) way better than any WSB or motogp game ive played.
Ive never been to the Day of Champions either but it seems like the best place to meet the riders, just means getting a thursday off work! I did go to Donny on raceday tho. Great racing but miserably wet, i think it was the wettest ive ever been without actually fully submerging myself in water
By the way, when are you going to the IOM? i thought the racing for this year was over?
