Another one of those movies that Hollywood is incapable of making. Enjoy! :wow:excited

> If you’re a petrolhead, there’s a few documentaries to lock into your diary for the weeks ahead. Alongside Asif Kapadia’s acclaimed bio-doc Senna comes TT3D: Closer To The Edge, an equally high-revving look at the Isle of Man’s week-long motorbiking bonanza that’s part racing doc, part character study.
>
> The Isle of Man TT brings the cream of world motorbiking talent to the island for a week of bat-out-of-hell racing through its lanes and byeways every year. TT3D, as you can see from the trailer below, captures all this in a blur of thrills and spills, as screaming tyres and screeching breaks punctuate the island’s usually serene villages. Think Days Of Thunder across the set of Postman Pat.
>
> The Cole Trickle of the show is Guy Martin, a motor-mouthed maverick and showman who frustrates his sponsors, annoys the powers-that-be and generally scares the hell out of the wildlife, all while delighting his small army of fanatical fans with his hair-raising biking and outspoken antics. Lined up against him are steely-eyed veteran John McGuinness, ultra-focused challenger Ian Hutchinson and local boy Conor Cummins. It’s hardly a spoiler to say that not everyone in the film walks away from it.

That race is absolutely nuts. 140+ turns with your head inches from a stone wall, lifting your knee to not have it ripped off by a curb as you lean in. Jumping a hill crest tapped out. If you dont even ride, you pucker your ass watching it.
