Isle of Man photos Garage Area

Does anyone have a link to the Isle of Man garage or pit area, the older the better, you will find out later what I am doing but in the meantime if anyone does I would really appreciate the links.

You are just teasing us!
But if i find any pics, I'll upload them here.

racerm · 19 December 07, 22:11

HEY! I never tease! But please upload them you'll find out why later( it will be worth it)

BTW can anyone tell me if (especially in the 1970s) the garage area only had garages, there were no stands or towers anywhere in there were there. If anyone has the GPL IOM version you will notice that they put the stands on top of the garage and there is a tower next to that, was that real. Or was the garage pit building only a pit building and the spectators just stood in the street area?

Jim Pearson would probably the best person to ask that.

Thanks DF! I kinda got my answer, I looked at video from the 2007 Man tt it shows that there is a tower on top of the pit building (quit large) and that their are stands on top as well. But the video moves so fast that I can't see the details. I still need to find good still pictures of todays pit area and the one in the 70's.

Maybe look here. You will be more familiar with the things to look for.
I wouldn't know where to start digging, really.

Great big huge thank you to both of you! those were the exact pictures that I needed really thanks! Now I can get on with my life (except for Midohio)

Hahaha! I found that historic site, guess there were a few good pics on it.
But since I don't know every corner of the track, guessed you might know.

I'm curious what the result will be. Good luck!
