Let's get into this month’s video highlights…
Martin Ward
Isle of Man TT top speed moments
June is when unhinged people flock to a small island in the Irish Sea and fling themselves round the street circuit at speeds in excess of 200mph. It's impressive enough when viewed on the TV or Youtube but there's no substitute for watching it in the flesh.
Martin's video is a compilation of footage from over the years, and won't fail to get you in the mood for this annual madathon.

Mat Armstrong
Rebuilding a Cheap BMW M5 Competition
Would you buy a car that's previously been written off and repaired? Maybe you already own one?
But would you buy a wrecked car and do it up yourself? YouTube is awash with 'wrecks to riches' videos but Mat Armstrong tends to focus on high-performance cars and supercars. This video is the first in his (so far) eight-part playlist showing his repair efforts with a BMW M5 Competition.
There are some heart-in-mouth moments with this car and it's not hard to see why Mat has such a strong YouTube following.
Grand Thrift Auto
Metal fabrication for beginners – rusty car parts
While we're on the subject of repairing cars, what do you do if you own something considerably older and can't get hold of body parts? You could pay a metal fabricator to do it or you could make it yourself, which is what Martin is doing here for his 1989 Honda Accord Aerodeck.
As the channel name suggests, Martin doesn't spend big bucks on his repairs, but he does do things properly. Hence this project requiring the use of 3D design software (it's free) and a bead roller (not free but probably cheaper than you might imagine), among other things.
