TT = Time Trial.

At the Isle of Man riders leave at seperate intervals and the one with the quickest time wins. Road racing is the conventional format where they start together and the first rider across the line wins.

I've noticed that the average paddock girl is just a weeeeeeeeee bit less attractive than those you see in WSBK and MotoGP :P

Your lack of desire and/or ability to research your chosen hobby is astounding. :frusty: :frusty:
