Following on from the success of the inaugural sixties themed 2013 Isle of Man Classic TT Races, the Isle of Man Government Department of Economic Development has confirmed that the 2014 Classic TT Races will pay tribute to Joey Dunlop.
Part of the fortnight-long Isle of Man Festival of Motorcycling, the series will have an 80s theme running throughout the event.
Entitled ‘Joey Dunlop - Road Racing Legend’, the Classic TT weekend will celebrate the career of the late and great Dunlop, not just at the TT, but also during the F1 World Championship days as well as his career in Ireland, with the 1980s a particular focus when the brilliant Ulsterman was at the height of his career.
