Manx Classic
Simon
Tigers won everything at the Manx Classic for several years in the '90s until the organisers changed the rules (wheels and brakes) which led to Team Tiger quitting the Classic.

Many team members at the time such as David Smallridge, Jackie Cochrane and Simon James then concentrated on mainland circuit racing - and still do via the AMOC Intermarque series and other Championships. In fact several videos were produced by the 'Duke' outfit.
I've dug out an article from a Cats Whiskers back in the day first written by Mick Walsh the Executive Editor of the Classic&sportscar magazine, who back then ran a Tiger and was a member of the Club!!

Manx Classic
I think it's scheduled for 24-26April 2014. Wonderful roads. Could be fun.
Funny enough that Markus was mentioned in the early article. Still remember when he said that he'll go to Manx. Those were the days even though he wasn't very competitve at that time. However he returned in 2000 with me as the crew and we finished first in 4 out of 5 races. Jackie wasn't there then ...
