Saw an advertisement for a race on Monday I think on Discovery channel. No luck on the Tevo search... how do I get info on this? Is this a upcoming race or a replay? Heeeelp!

They started 4 weeks ago on HD Theater and air every Mon. @ 6PM I have them on my DVR


Week 1.Practice round up
         2. 1st race highlights
         3. 1st sidecar race highlights

I'm waiting to see the race where Guy Martin loses the front at 150mph and crashes in a ball of fire. He got hurt but seems like he will be ok. it comes on in 2 or 3 weeks. He's quite a character.

*Runs home to check DVR* ;D

I did see where one guy 'brushed' the wall at 160. He came into the pits after that and stopped racing. I would too! LOL

I love where they put the grandstands.  The TT is the true Fear Factor show.
It's about taking in the most corners to your destination, not about the shortest, quickest route.

Guy Martin is the next legend!!

It's all about emulsion!!! (if you have seen his TT interview from 2009)
