BALLAGAREY

BALLAGAREY

from £490.00

Ballagarey is from Rachael Clegg’s Milestones series in which every single image illustrates an event from the history of the Isle of Man TT Races.

The story: 

In 2010 Guy Martin crashed just down the road from this spot during the third lap of the Senior race. His crash caused a dramatic fireball, fuelled by a full tank of petrol. This was one of Martin’s signboards - its numbers have not been touched since that day. The figures show his exact times and position at Kirk Michael only minutes before he came off. This section – also known as Glen Vine – is notoriously unforgiving; hence its moniker, ‘Ballascarey’.

This, combined with their sheer power, gave rise to the name ‘Silver Arrows’. 
So powerful was the W25 that when Mercedes driver Ernst Henne tested it at the Nurburgring in 1934 the force of the supercharger took him by such surprise that he finished in a stream at Berwerk, only to be rescued by an old woman.
