Real Roadracing
These days the term "roadracing" is frequently used for short and closed circuit motorcycle racing. You have a few mile long twisted track where technical skills and tires are more important than outright speed and controlled insanity. This is one of the best videos one could own that shows the "real" roadracing, using public roads of the Isle of Man of the UK. This unique race is always about to be banned due to its often tragic history and the loss of so many great racers. Sadly, one of the heroes of this race, nine time winner David Jefferies (he is on the cover on his Suzuki GSX-R) died during a practice session this year. This is the last opportunity to see this incredibly fast, very likable and talented racer in action. You can also see a wide variety of races from sidecars to different displacement classes of bikes. If you like motorcycles, you will not regret to buy this video.
A must have.
This video is a must have for anyone into motorcycles.The on board camera footage is amazing. I've watchedDJ's practice lap of the island ( ~18 minute loop ) at least20 times. Unbelievable.I can't wait for the 2003 review to come out!
Poor audio video with good racing.
This DVD is everything of the Isle of Man coverage you see on TV AND NOTHING MORE. TV quality video and sub-par sound. The racing is great but the audio/video was a major disappointment (No Dolby or DTS encoding, not even 2.0).
