Fabulous, great to see it in its original state, before they started easing it out in the 60s and 70s, it really was just like a country road back then

Classic bike film from the BFI.

The Carrowdore 100 in Northern Ireland c 1960. If only there was sound!

A nice bit of classic film, unfortunately the paragraphs below are a tad off. The TT races (car) were at Dundrod, but never went anywhere near Carrowdore, they went to Goodwood instead, after the fateful multiple accident 1955 race. The TT (bike) races have always been on the IoM.

Only watch this if your taste in cars (like mine) extends to the General Lee tackling a car park drifting course. :drunken:
Fair warning.
