Matra,

I know you are into bikes too, like the TT.

I'm looking for DVDs on bike racing with a sidecar, preferably something like MotoGPs with a whole bunch of them racing at the same time.

Thanks in advance for any info provided.

Matra,

Thanks in advance for any info provided.
Unfortunately the owners of the sidecar races screwed up a while back and it ended up in a back-water of motorsport.
It's got a little better these past couple of years but I think you'll struggle to find much.
The world FIM championship is now called SUPERSIDE racing just to confuse newbies :) The site http://superside.com/site/index.php?id=en has info and pics.

The IoM TT video/dvd always has coverage of the 2 Sidecar races, but these are pursuit and NOT bunched start. It's available from Duke Video.

They also have some sidecar vids - http://www.dukevideo.com/products/1142.htm - but I think that's an old documentary. The bikes are less powerful now !!!

You're best chance wwould be to contact a club local to you. You may find a link off the Superside web page that helps.

Sorry I don't know any other sources.
