Global autosport media come for 'TT' spectacle

20 years since mountain course-inspired model

The mountain road will become a testing ground for an exclusive TT spectacle this week (Thurs 12th)

German engineering will be showcased in the form of four wheels, not two, as the world's auto sport media will come to test drive a car inspired by the famous Tourist Trophy.

Audi will stage an event celebrating 20 years of their TT model in its first ever product launch on the Isle of Man.

Enterprise Minister Laurence Skelly, who has been working with the Deparment of Infrastructure to facilitate the event, says he sees this as an exciting opportunity for the Island.

Road closures will run from Ramsey Hairpin to the Creg-ny-Baa from Thursday 12th July to the Thursday 19th, with the exception of Sunday 15th, 12.30 to 4pm each day.
