Re: IOMTT is epic
In Response To: IOMTT is epic ()

Many years ago, with a couple of others, I was invited by the Manx Motor Racing Club to look into the possibility of running a race event for the MG Car Club.

One of that weekend's highlights was to be driven around the TT circuit by the President, who at that time was Peter Bolton, ex Works AC Cobra driver.
One of his claims to fame was to drive the Cobra at LeMans in which Jack Sears had recorded 185MPH on the M1 on 11 June 1965), three years before the 70 Mph limit was introduced.

The MG motto was 'Safety Fast' Oh Boy, was it that!
