surely then it's high time for a tightening up of certain rules concerning the tt? firstly the qualification maxima needs to be a lot less. if these first/second/tenth timers at the tt can't get under the qualification time set then they shouldn't be racing there. they are slow and get in people's way. the mgp, apart from these superfast "works" bikes is run at a slower rate. top speeds are down, lap speeds are slower. not knocking it for that, after all if you can do a 120 mph lap you need to be at the tt not the mgp. the spirit of the mgp, the amateur tt still seems to be there for the most part. it is and SHOULD be used as a stepping stone to the big money, international, tt. the isle of man tt is not for learners or slow fat people :-]
ade!
