Tail of the Dragon

Just another twisty road that us Brits would do blindfolded. Clearly the yanks think it's just 'too awesome maaaaan! Just listen to the overblown music. Doesn't even come within 5% of the IOMTT, NW200, Ulster GP and the like. No doubt it's a good road but get real!

A few bends and they're in awe? Road from hell?? Agree with gunshot72, the Yanks would quiver in Scotland or Wales, while in England they'd just fall over with all the Roundabouts and potholes :)

I'm not sure you understand, Deals Gap is dangerous because of the numerous blind corners (of which roundabouts have none) combined with the 18-wheelers that drive in the wrong lane around said blind corners. This creates a pretty effective barrier to slam into and kill yourself.

"IOMTT, NW200, Ulster GP and the like" are sanctioned road racing events and (to the best of my knowledge) are not known for tractor trailers driving on the wrong side of the road. Yes, they are very dangerous but then again the people racing are also professionals (not sure why gunshot72 compared professional racing to weekend getaways for the average joe).

If everyone observed the golden rule that you should be able to stop within the distance you can see, then they wouldn't go hooning into blind bends too fast ,not knowing what is just round the corner.Just a thought......

The rebound of the 'gunshot' must have rattled the few brain cells you have, the only other thing to do is step away from the bottle and sober up. Instead of posting utter rubbish.

Im sure that your average British numpty riding the Cat and Fiddle really thinks he's on the TT you pillock.
