Hillclimb Details 

 

The 3-day Manx Classic Hillcllimb takes place over three unique climbs located across the Isle of Man. Each hillclimb is held on public roads under closed-road conditions.   As well as the outstanding locations, what makes this event so unique, is that it is open to Edwardian, vintage, classic and modern sports cars and therefore showcases a fabulous selection of machines from throughout the ages. Two of the climbs are also on parts of the famous TT Course and include one the longest hillclimbs in Great Britain. The third, The Sloc, is considered by many, to be the best climb on the entire island. 

​

The Sloc
​

Located in the south of the Island, just north of Port Erin, the Sloc course is a real challenge for competitors and also provides the added bonus of providing spectators with safe viewing for the full length of the track. The spectacular views across the whole of the south east of the island are an added bonus. 

 

From the bottom paddock competitors and spectators are able to see 75 per cent of the course which runs for a distance of 1.06 miles (1700 metres) and climbs at an average of 1 in 14, rising by 421.26 feet (128.4 metres.)

 
Creg Willey's
 

Creg Willey's runs through Glen Helen, north of Ballig Bridge on the TT course, before negotiating Creg Willey's hill, past Sarah's Cottage and on to Lambfell, finishing on the Cronk-y-Voddy straight. The course is approx 1.45 miles

​
Lhergy Frissell
 

Lhergy Frissell Hillclimb takes the world-famous TT course out of Ramsey, through the famous Ramsey Hairpin, Waterworks and Gooseneck corners. The longest hillclimb in Great Britain, it encorporates part of the original Gordon Bennett Eliminating Trails course of 1904 and the original (car) TT course, from 1905 onwards. The course is approx 1.48 miles​
