Sure thing HARRY!

Petrol-head as I am, real-world energy status dictates that sooner or later (sooner in fact....) we must ALL embrace fuel economy in racing; and everywhere else.

Fuels used must also change along with strictures of availability and price.

Hydrogen-cell powered machines are very good, but efficiency is limited, once real -world figures are accounted for: they cannot exceed 60% efficiency right now. It may improve of course.

An electric-powered TT race would be another headline-grabbing event, and no way would it be boring.........silence notwithstanding, we all have Walkmans to provide sound tracks, do we not?

I have to tell you now my friends, that riding/driving a silent vehicle brings many new thrills to one's mind and body.

I have done this on two and four wheels this year.

Both modes exceeded even the thrill of silent airborne flight around a volcano peak in a glider.

It is coming soon.

Let the TT lead the way, and stage a truly modern Tourist Trophy race, based on energy efficiency.
