The full name of this event is International Isle Of Man TT (Tourist Trophy) Race - the most dangerous superbike races which are organised continously since 1907 on British Man Island.
Every year, at spring-summer period of year, a hundreds of thousand fans arrive at Man Isle, where number of habitants reaches 80.000. During the race, speed often crosses 300 km/h ! In every minute of this competition there is huge portion of unbelievable emotions. We can watch and feel this huge speed just by stay behind barriers during the race.
The name of the course is "Mountain Circuit" and it's 60 kilometres long. Around the track we can find trees, lanterns, fences, hedgerows, buildings, and many more typically urban sceneries. When any of drivers hit any of obstacle with high speed, it often means death.
I added a small chart below to show you how many people dies every year.
As you can see there was a number of 9 casualties in the worst season. Death rates are comparable to russian rullette.
For increasing sense of safety, drivers start race separately and only the time of each lap decides about winning or losing the rivalry.
