He will ride a Norton Rotary machine

Josh Brookes is to make his debut at the Classic TT.

He will ride for the Wiz Norton Racing team on a 588cc Norton Rotary in the Superbike Classic race with Richard Wilson as team-mate.

The aim is to try and beat the fastest ever lap of the Mountain Course by a rotary machine which was set during the famous 1992 Senior TT.

It was set by Steve Hislop in his dramatic win over Carl Fogarty and is 123.50mph.
