My mate is on the ferry with some of the top gear people. They are doing a photo shoot with the new audi R8 and some other cars. Does anyone know of any road closures ?

They must be just parking up for some arty shots, for magazine.

Got a few pictures of the stig on the mountain, and he waved at me []

photo's not good due to mist and drizzle every 5 mins. Didn't want my camera getting wet.Got some better ones once they have been uploaded and edited. Was happy enough just to see the stig [H]

No...but I was so happy to see some of the most beautiful cars of the moment. Ive seen the lambos and allsorts etc, but the Audi R8 is....DrooooooooooooooooooooL.

The Porsche, R8 and Lambo passed me this morning on my way to the shop

They came off the QB roundabout headin toward Braddan and the fellas driving all gave it some beans, what a sound that R8 makes

Hey Crosby Dave and Graeme!

Yeah I saw the yellow Lambo and the R8 at QB this morning too. I thought they'd have gone home by now?

Apparently theyre either based up at Jurby, or are using the track up there...

They were up Marine Drive on Tuesday too!

Hi Dudes I saw the stig a few times in Port Erin and the new Audi R8 I also saw  the lambo and a few of  the other cars over last week. As they were staying in Port Erin they were washing the cars at Darnills after the garage was closed.
