This is one for those of you who would like to drive their serious track cars on closed 'A' roads in achieving speeds over 125mph....Interested? The Manx Classic is for you

You can do it and I am certainly going to do it next year (dates TBC)

It happened a few weeks ago with a whole range of cars and only a couple of BMW's. I predict 2007 will be in demand as it's just not well known and the first time it;s been run in since 2002

3 day event £70 per day - you don't have to enter all 3 of them
>Hill Climb in Douglas city 8O
>Pursuit event :twisted:
>Hill climb on the TT course outside Ramsey :D

Cars this year included E36 M3GT:

Harge 325

Plus, all kinds of classic performance cars, UK and the USA, plus Porches, Corvettes, a 8lts Moggie minor...all sorts..oh and a model T ford!
Who's up for it? Legal driving, on closed 'A' roads at 125mph+, come on, you will never get to do this anywhere else than the Isle of Man - once in a lifetime me thinks winkeye

WOW ....I've been inundated with requests for.....Well Nothing really :roll:

April 2007 is a long way away I suppose, I'll remind you all nearer the time about this event, it really would be good with deals being offered through the Manx tourist board to enter :D

Cheers anyway
