Tiptop, they don't make 'em like that anymore :notworthy:

What to pick? Of course there's the delicious sound of the BMWs, classic shots of Sheidegger trailing his right foot on left handers, the Irish roads complete with a trials and a scrambles outfit :lol:

Certainly was an advantage when the Hutchinson 100 was run the 'wrong' way round Brands :shock:

Always a favourite with spectators and crews :D Plus an opportunity for a pot to go to someone who does not usually get such things :!:

Certainly not the easiest thing to get right as the handicapper, just don't ask how I know ;)
