    IMO driving Minnesota's freeway's is almost as dangerous. Its great that this race hasn't been destroyed by lawyers like so many things in this country have been. Michael Dunlop's lap is CRAZY! Putting it on the big screen with surround sound gave me goose bumps. Isle of Man is on my bucket list, but I think the Ulster GP may be a little more do-able

      I don't give a damn about watching MotoGO anymore, the tracks all look like airports, with the fans so far from the track they're almost never in the camera.
      Sterile and boring.
      The Northern Irish road races are so roots racing it's divine.

        The UGP is a lot more affordable! I went in 2011. I think there is a better bang for your buck in Northern Ireland. I went over this year for a visit and this time to the Armoy "Race of Legends". Had a great time. cg
