REACTION TO AMAZING Isle of Man TT races On Bike RACE Lap! Cameron Donald

[@lindsaymac01]

I'm glad you mentioned the scenery looked a bit blurry. As the late, great, Joey Dunlop said, “There is a grey blur, and a green blur. I try to stay on the grey one...” Joey Dunlop was the greatest TT rider in history.

[@dalewyatt1321]

Probably the nicest bloke to ever race a bike.

[@ronmullard5718]

There are so many nice guys that have raced bikes ....my favourites Mike Hailwood Joey Dunlop John Williams...Tom Herron....to name a few....

[@ianrose56]

So remember to start with that Cameron is a plumber in his day job back in Australia.!! Reference points, they can be anything from building on the horizon to dips and crests on the road. These guys have been around the island, so many times that it's really second nature to them, they know every inch like the back of their hands.. And this is on the smaller engine size 600cc. The boys , Cameron included, are much quicker on the big bikes 1000cc. They hit 200 plus mph on the straights..!!!! Great reaction, love the grimacing and the leaning.!!! ❤❤❤🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

[@eddiec1961]

Good reaction thanks 1 lap is 37.5 miles long and they do 6 laps and the superbike has a top speed of 216mph

[@jonbarwell5204]

You need to react to Peter Hickman’s video of the fastest ever lap around the TT course on a motorbike and Mark Higgins fastest car lap around the TT course in a Subaru Impreza.

[@pistolpete938]

[@davidcruse6589]

Aussie boy doing Australia 🇦🇺 great He's a plumber when not racing He doing commentary on hes lap after the race

[@Dave.C937]

Iv'e lived in Warrardyte for 34 years. I remember Cam as a kid. Have'nt seen him for quiet a few years now though. Glad he's survived the great race.It's a deadly race. So happy he gave that track away.

[@stevesoutar3405]

i love your enthusiasm for this sport - it is a truly gobsmacking thing of beauty to watch someone swooping like a fish through those sets of bends You asked at one point if the riders had radios in their helmets, as far as i know the only communication they have is by traditional pit boards, which each rider has dotted around a couple of sections of the track The pit boards go past too quick for the camera to catch, but when you're riding fast with the adrenaline pumping hard, i can tell you from my experience riding bikes that your brain is processing much faster than normal, and you are looking so far down the road for the next apex or braking point - that these guys will have no trouble reading a pit board flashing past them, they already know which part of the course to look for them I wonder if anyone has ever put a heart monitor on a TT rider while they are racing - i wouldn't be surprised if their heart rates are up around 140 or 150 bpm, especially in the tricky technical sections

[@MaxwellMoore-d1u]

I absolutely Love an Aussie is explaining to Yanks how to Race on the Isle of Man. Beautiful.

[@aldower3390]

Great guy and great commentary, this was a few years back, now the top speed is 210 +

[@danw1955]

Yep, this is the absolute insanity of The Isle of Man TT!! I've been on bikes all my life (and some pretty fast ones that would do 140 easily), but to do that through corners and up and down hills, is just beyond my comprehension.😱 I think this fellow needs a bigger bucket to carry around his huge brass balls!🤣

[@kaypie3112]

The looks on your faces as you are watchiNg are priceless!!!

[@justlinsu]

The saying goes "Mad Dogs and Englishmen" but this Aussie is one of them lol. Holy cow it triggered my Vertigo lol

[@nikkihayes5411]

No "ship to shore" radios for the bikes, just mates with timing boards around the course.🏍️💨💨😸

[@pauldunn37]

Cam even mentioned his board at the end of Cronk y Voddy.

[@BigAl53750]

I love the way he says calmly; “Back tyre just breaking traction.” AT about that point, I’m DEFINITELY wetting myself! I’ve been riding bikes for fifty years and I remember watching TT races in the 1970’s when the roads through the villages were still cobblestone roads! They’ve upgraded the roads of course, but the stones of those guys, doing upwards of 100mph round corners of cobblestone streets is something I still get goosebumps thinking about. See if you can find any footage of a guy called Mike Hailwood, who was a legend of the Isle of Man TT back then. it will blow your mind!

[@mornadu]

Thats him racing a 600cc. Slow compared to the 1000ccs they run

[@AndrewMitchell001]

600 is only 30 seconds slower than the superbike over a lap not that much slower than a bike with almost twice the engine capacity.

[@pauldunn37]

Michael Dunlop did a 130 on the R6 last year.

[@markosporn8315]

True,and more fun

[@kevinbutcher995]

Slow.......?

[@paulosilva8200]

Corner with 1000cc os a hard task because of the weight

[@prefono]

It's impressive that way too, and it's "only" a 600! With the thousand that have 100 hp more, you practically enter another dimension!

[@timbarnett3898]

Watching isle of Mann motorcycle race surely increases my blood pressure! So, you're the wolf hunters? My friend took me to a friend of his he met on another job. While I'm sitting in living room, a beautiful male wolf walks to head of stairs, looks down at me. "Oh my heavens, you're the most beautiful wolf I've ever seen. Here I'll make room for you, while I sat on floor. Wolf comes down stairs, sits next to me. Then from kitchen comes out friend an a female wolf. Is this you're mate! You must be luckiest guy on the planet? Here, we can make room for her, right here! She came to us an sat down on my other side. Have you ever seen a more beautiful wolf pair? My friend says, Barney, I've tried to get these wolves close too me for 6 months without success, an you have them both laying on you in 6 minutes! You just amaze me!!

[@rogerreed905]

These guys can do it blind folded . . They have to know this course so well to go fast . . They dont think it . . The thinking was done before he started . . They become one . . Time for doing . .

[@B00g1emann01]

I love the way their head tilts the same direction the bike is

[@williamhardes8081]

i ride bikes and even to me this is F'ing crazy. one of the famous TT racers said, "there is a grey blur and a green blur, i try to stay on the grey one!"

[@stevenp2956]

Great reaction guys. I just want to correct something though. The Isle of Man TT is always described as a race. It isnt a race. It's a time trial. They set of one at a tiime in 10 second intervals. If you want to watch proper road racing and if you haven't already then you need to check out the Irish road racing scene. A good video for that is Irish road warriors. Around 20 bikes racing at once doing over 200mph, side by side, in the rain and on far worse roads than the Isle of Man.

[@Avfc-m4w]

The boys are out to play tomorrow will be watching live.

[@FrowningIke]

13:52 Yes. However due to the size of the course with a mountain in the middle they are incommunicado for the most part. Some riders have a team or often family member that is in touch via a phone holding up an analogue timing board to give them an idea of their position as they fly past.

[@2012inca]

The Bee Gees were born on the Isle of Man. After that they went to live in Australia.

[@almartin115]

Ever hear the BeeGees singing Ellen Vannin? The national anthem of the Ise of Man. Check it out. Robin Gibb Ellen Vannin

No, they were born IN the Isle of Man. Then they moved to England. Later to Australia, for eight years.

[@doobiedave9686]

Check out the 1000cc bikes at Isle of Mann, the reach speeds of 210+ mph. 👀😳🤯 Suzi was spot on with her calculation of how long it takes to travel 1 mile at 180mph and it was hilarious watching her leaning from side to side like she was riding the bike. 😂🤣 Btw, the commentary was added after the race, not during it. 🤘🙌✌️

[@kevo6190]

Maniac 🤘🤣🇦🇺

[@malcolmsleight9334]

For reference, riders start 10 seconds apart. So for him to almost catch the rider in front of him means he was moving. John McGinnis is also an excellent rider and has participated in many Isle of Man TT races, so for Cameron to almost catch him was fantastic riding.

[@malcolmrayner3480]

Mike The Bike Hailwood won the TT ten years in a row retired for ten years came back and won again LOL

[@maldad9073]

These bikes are insanely smooth and stable at speed, it's the proximity of the landscape that truly makes this race incredibly dangerous.

[@MaxwellMoore-d1u]

You both have to come over and experience a Race.

[@victormaholik594]

The brake indicator lighting up is actually the wind pressure pushing in the front brake lever. They have holes actually made into them to to minimize this effect

[@robertgrant4987]

Just the Sidecar racing now 😊

[@DunskiRT]

Two days left

[@JamoZNL]

You should watch Peter Hickmans onboard chin cam lap. That makes the adrenaline flow by just watching the screen!

[@theant9821]

thats just a demo lap, the dean harrison lap on the ducati 916 was an actual practice lap for the classic tt, its loads better, the 916 may be old but its not slow.

[@malcolmsleight9334]

Peter Hickman currently owns the fastest average speed for a lap at the Isle of Man TT. He set it in 2022, and then broke it in 2023. This was done on a 1,000cc bike.

[@peterarmstrong6928]

He's not saying the weather is windy, it's called Windy Corner, Travis willing Cam to pass John McGuinness, that's a lot harder than it seems, Cam has won 2TTs, John has won 23.

[@ScotsmanDougal]

He sounds calm because he narrated it after the lap. In post.

[@Puzzoozoo]

Out of all the American bike racers past and present only one has ever won the TT. Dave Roper is currently the only American to win a TT Race using conventional internal combustion engine power; the Historic TT of 1984. Riding a G50 Matchless he headed home the field in the only time this class of race has been run. Dave has also finished runner-up twice in the Senior Classic Manx Grand Prix, in 1988 and 1990. As for the circuit, it is 37.730 miles, and the really quick guys can do it in under 18 minutes, and they do 6 laps for their time. As for fuel, the TT racers use VP Racing fuel, it is an American company founded in Texas. Oh, the top speed on the fastest part of the circuit for the 1,000 cc bikes is usually around 220 mph.

[@timbarnett3898]

37.37 miles long course. Big boys run 6 laps, lower class runs a 4 lap race. An sidecars run a 3 lap race. This is hardest race in world! You ask about lap times? Lap times are under 17 minutes!

[@Whiskers74]

I love motorcycles, and I love going fast, but I'd ride a 1500hp 5 second, 260mph top fuel motorcycle before you'd catch me on this course. These guys are a special breed, even amongst other motorcyclists.

[@1_5RCBiker]

If you think 150 looks slow, try 600mph on a Bloodhound LSR run!

[@sirtango1]

The helicopters are constantly climbing and diving, trying to keep up with the bikes. The bikes are faster than the choppers. If it wasn’t for the zoom on the cameras you wouldn’t see much except a blur!

[@dan.vitale]

The riders do not communicate with their pits. The pits communicate with their riders via a pit board with minimal information. Also these are 600cc bikes. Not the most powerful machines they run (that'll be 1000cc "Superbikes" or "Superstock") - those machines often go above 200mph.

[@metarugia3981]

How is that bike able to max out at 185mph with Cameron's massive steel balls dragging on the ground?😬

[@Samhain606]

Cameron is a pro obviously but believe it or not it looks scarier on camera

[@jimharris367]

The big 1000cc superbikes that they also race here will top out at about 215mph, so quite a bit faster then this!

[@TheSportsBoffin]

Remember he is riding a 600cc so top speed is only 185 m.p.h. I say only.....the top class ride 1000cc so their top speed is as high as 200-210 m.p.h. So yeah he is going fast but not as fast as the main race.

[@alien-k4w]

over 200 1000 cc

[@toomasargel8503]

217mph = 349 km/h = 96,92 meters per second or in USA measurment 312 feet per second = 10, 32 second gfor 1 km or 16.59 second to get 1 mile trhu !

[@derekwhite2929]

IOM is like nothing else on earth!

[@davidcruse6589]

No they don't have any communication on board The only way is in certain spot the team will put a board out With all the information telling them what position their in and distance from nearest rider Also how many laps they've done and he only have seconds to read it all and process it Board might have lap t Under it position Under that + or - whith the ammount which tells him who closes to him Thats the only way of communicating to the rider's If rider has problem with bike Hell pull in to pits if able to get back as race is over if that happens Otherwise pull off the track but if they have any major problems It'll be castrophic and throws rider on the road Ive seen engine sieze up and another one chain broke jammed back wheel tossing rider off It all part of the risks but very few failures What people dont understand how strong the riders are The wind forces are trying to rip you off the bike I've done 100 mph and hard enough to stay on bike These guys 180 to 230 mph and average speed 130 mph Also to change gears down at those speed They have to hit throttle to match the engine speed with back wheel If they get it wrong the motor will lock back wheel and chuck rider's off So it just another skill the riders have to get right Thats why when changing down you hear the engine noise raises Cheers guys 🦘🇦🇺👍

You're wrong there. The northwest 200 in Ireland has all the same obstacles but with a difference. The TT is a time trial the set of in 10 second intervals,its not a race. The northwest 200 is a proper race. Irish road racing is way better than the TT imo.
