New on-board TT box set from Duke

1 of 1

This new three-DVD box set of the 2009 Isle of Man TT offers race fans 12 full laps of white-knuckle action.

Disc one: Laps from the 2009 Practice Week with TT legend John McGuinness, TT winner Steve Plater and the ever dramatic

Guy Martin, plus three-times world sidecar championship team Tim Reeves and Patrick Farrance.

Look up into the visor of McGuinness, see straight ahead from Plater’s Honda and watch the suspension being battered on Martin’s Hydrex machine from the low-mounted camera.

Disc two: 2009 Race Week, with TT sidecar legend Dave Molyneux, 2009 double race winner Ian Hutchinson, Martin once again and Mountain course regular Carl Rennie.

The action comes from the Superbike TT, as Martin laps at 127.685mph, the first Supersport race, as Hutchinson romps to victory, the Superstock contest and the opening Sidecar race, where we join Moly on his way to a record-breaking 14th TT win. There’s also an on-board lap from the electric TT.

Disc three: Features one practice lap and two racing laps from the Mountain circuit, plus an entire 2009 TT race! First up is McGuinness again, this time on the Supersport bike in practice.

The camera on the back of the machine shows the outright lap record holder jumping out of his seat on the bumps.

Gary Johnson, in the Superbike TT, captures footage from his rear-facing camera, while Guy Martin’s low-mounted camera in the Senior TT has to be seen to be believed.

The box set costs £17.99 from www.dukevideo.com
