Mega! Looks like they've been hampered by a bit of rain for some of the sessions. Hopefully it's dry for the races.

Gentlemen, can any of you inform me as to how i could attain race week highlights on dvd, i can not find anyone in Aus who has anything on it at all, is there anyone in England or on the Isle itself who films the racing & then puts a package of the week together, any help will be greatly appreciated.

I was lead to beleive that the racing was all but banned, i have wanted to attend this week for years & especially this year i'm devastated.

There are annual review dvd's available. But you wont find a review of this year's race for quite some time I would imagine. You can probably order past reviews though. Amazon maybe?

Edit:

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw...sle+of+man+dvd

Also, a simple google search came up with a lot of options. Cheers.

Taz, I went in 2002 and would recommend it to anyone interested in bikes.

DVDs are by Duke Marketing available at most motorsport booksellers.

The company that organised my trip is called Get Routed and they are based in Melbourne.

Pretty easy to get hold of all the highlights DVD'd going back to 1985 in Australia, try the likes of Pitstop bookshop or Motorsport Video.

We're strugling to find any news on Shaun Harris following his accident at Union Mills. Can anyone help with information? The last we heard he's critical with life threatening injuries and is receiving massive blood transfusions. His family are flying over right now and they won't know the full extent of his injuries until they get to Nobles Hospital.

Please feel free to PM or e-mail me.

Thinking of you Shaun.

A pure kind gentleman Kiwi. A champion in so many ways.

The latest from www.iomtt.com

TT winner Shaun Harris is critically ill after a high-speed crash during yesterday's Superstock TT.

The popular Kiwi came off his Suzuki in Union Mills during the four-lap race.

Medics were quickly on the scene and the 41-year-old was taken to Noble's Hospital in Braddan.

He was initially described as having suffered serious injuries and multiple fractures. This morning he is described as 'critical' in the intensive therapy unit at Noble's

Some good news for our NZ friends, Bruce Anstey won the Superstock race at the phenomenal speed of 128.40 mph for lap two and 125.9 mph for the race.

John McGuinness second, Ian Hutchinson third.



Hope Shaun Harris is ok soon!
