Manx National Heritage is inviting visitors to head down to the Manx Museum to take part in a special TT challenge.

Until Monday, January 3, all visitors to the museum’s motorsport-themed Exploratorium will have the opportunity to win daily prizes by taking part in a special challenge to conquer the Snaefell Mountain Course.

The official TT PlayStation game faithfully recreates the demanding course of the legendary race featuring the official riders and their bikes.

The game features footage ’which takes realism to new heights’.

MNH said: ’This is a chance to experience truly realistic automotive thrills on two wheels, complete with island landmarks and changing weather conditions without the need to don your leathers!’

The Manx Museum TT challenge includes prizes for the fastest lap recorded each day, while the person who records the fastest lap over the fortnight will receive two annual MNH passes for their family.

All participants will be given a limited edition ’I rode the Manx Museum TT Course’ sticker.

Covid-preventative measures, including both hand sanitiser and anti-bacterial wipes, are in place throughout the museum, which will be open daily 9.30am-4.30pm including Sundays, except for New Year’s Day and January 2.
