As a now former (don't get me started) fanatical fan of Formula 1 racing I lamented the fact that a lot of that old F1 danger from the 60's-80's was now gone. Traction control, all the other driver aids, combined with the tracks being constantly re-worked for added safety meant a lot of that danger was neutered.
Now, I'm not some NASCAR redneck that just wants to see crashes for low IQ entertainment sake, but knowing there is some element of danger makes you have a certain amount of respect for a man, no?
The Isle of Man TT, after all these years, still offers that.......in spades. These are real fucking men. Tank slappers, blind apex's, city streets, country roads, wide open throttles, no runoff areas, 3 foot launches, dive-bombed down hills, the TT is testosterone personified. Its very high on my bucket list of things to see in person.
Yes, I saw this first on Church Of Choppers and yes, the title to this post is ultra homo-erotic.
