Mark Higgins is a Manxman who has broken lap records at the TT. Unlike most, however, Mark gets to compete on four wheels – but that doesn’t make his feats any less impressive. 128.730mph in his specially built 600bhp Prodrive Subaru was a staggering achievement – and he reckons there’s still more to come from it…
