    Isle of Man TT Practice Session -- HD Theatre Direct TV

    Jul 13, 9:00 pm ET
    (60 minutes)

    Isle of Man TT
    Practice Session

    Round-up of the practice sessions from this year's Isle of Man TT. Who's looking good this year, and will anyone be able to beat the current lap record of 17.21 minutes set by 14-time winner John McGuiness in 2007.

    That channel is on Comcast too, for anyone that has that service.

    I could record it onto a memory card and then you can watch it on your computer, or if you have a PSP.

    Good eye Jeff. This will be great to watch.

    Right on. I'll record it onto a card and see if I can transfer it to my computer and burn it onto a CD or DVD. Quality won't be HD, but at least you'll be able to watch it. I recorded some MotoGP races and WSBK this way and watched it on my trip down to Dallas. Works great.

    No. I set up my DVR last night for it and it's only on the HD Theatre channel. This was on Comcast.

    Direct TV HD Theater channel 281

    Just finished watching. The speed these guys carry over that type of road is just insane. The guy from Down Under set a lap record at over 131 MPH...UNREAL

    Average speed = 131

    The Bimota and Alpinestar bits the second hour were interesting too.
