Good Manx weather - wind, hail, sleet, sun. [:Y:]

Good commitment by the local lads - George Collister took the Brandywell jumps the quickest I have ever seen! He either had a little luck or knew exactly what he was doing, as he landed sideways over the second and held her flat! Very lucky...

Three shots for those of you who cannot make it.

Lee Batty's mint Ezzy looks to have taken a hefty shunt - even took to the grass to make up time.

Sorry there is not BMW interest in there shots - was waiting for Kex, but he never showed - see now that he retired SS1.

Yeah, the opposite way to which we went in Feb - one hell of a jump from George!

Sad to hear about your engine woes Kex. Have you got an early diagnosis yet? My best bet would be broken piston rings if you have excessive crankcase pressure. :(
