Isle of Man TT Races . By far the best motorcycle racing on the planet , nothing else even comes close , the atmosphere , meeting fellow motorcycle tragics from all over the world and the atmosphere of the place just cannot be duplicated .. NO BRAINER really Oh and did I mention the atmosphere of the place ?

Everytime I park my rear and go for a drive in one of my T's.v

Seriously though, I enjoy most forms of motorsport. Bikes, cars, open wheelers. It's difficult to say, but there is one event that most of us would look forward to.
Bathurst.
It's a day off for me parked on the lounge, drifting in an out of consciousness. Neil Crompton does that to me for some reason. Nice bloke. Intelligent. Just he puts me to sleep.

my fav is the muscle car masters & the Tasman Revival

You can meet the drivers, get close to the cars. Along with penty of great racing.

On top of all of that its dirt cheap compared to the V8's
