130mph lap my ****. I first raced in the IOM in the early sixties and the course had no resemblance to what it is now, I would think that anyone who had been there then and not witnessed the changes and straightening and chopping of corners and bends over the years and returned now they would not recognise the place.

I suppose you have got to keep the spin and hype going about amazing speeds to compensate for the lack of actual racing time and laps.

there have bewen endless calls for the course to be re-measured on these forums, that will be the day, so don't hold your breath
