Very exciting stuff.

Who does everyone think will make that historic lap?

My money is on the Mugen bike. I don't think Honda, I mean Mugen, will show up unless they can take #1.

With that said.. it's a race, and the TT has proven to be rather harsh on bikes with limited testing. (see MotoCzysz in the 2009 TTXGP). Mugen seems like they're doing their testing .. soooooo we'll see : D

I wonder what the next milestone will be once the 100mph average is broken.
