Hi Guys
Great trip
I think that you E21 experts ought to check out the IOM for a visit- remember NO speed limits TT course of 37.5 miles

and this

shows some of IOM- the Roof jumpers are from IOM and this is entirely shot here

[Jeroen]

Fun vid! So we should do the Isle of Man one day, instead of Alps?

[TopCat]

absolutely!

it's also safer (no shootings!!)

[Jeroen]

And you may be able to get us some routes to spend a few days there burning rubber?

[TopCat]

yes that's right!

lots of car claubs organise trips over to IOM
see below Porsche Club GB:

I would start by contcating Steampacket for any deals here:

You could time the trip to coincide with Manx Classic - last weekend of April 2013 (if you get organised we can set up a class for E21s)
- or a Duke Trackday at the race track

In any event I would recommned staying at Mount Murray Hotel (lots of secure parking)http://www.booking.com/hotel/gb/mount-murray-country-club.en.html?aid=311076;label=hotel-34095-gb-eRK5TFYYBa3yq_VQ9GFY0QS12485333940:pl:ta:p1:p2:ac:ap1t1:neg;ws=&gclid=CJel782zprICFaXKtAodWBoAdA

and book yourselves in for a BBQ at my place!!

How about that for an offer???

[Mihajlo]

are those brakepads?

[Jeroen]

Don't think so, it's more dirt gathered during a week of driving and quite some rain some days. I'm pretty hard on brakes but this would be too much on the streets haha

Tim: Thanks, I'll do some studying and check with the guys here!
