TT 2007
This is my own point of View by the way. Paul Phillips is doing a cracking job and hes good at it. But i think he needs to look at the Bigger Picture ok if it is indeed only for the 100 Year of the TT Races the paying public need that something extra special. Its sad to think we lost the greatest TT Rider of our time or maybe of all time on the faithfull day in July 2000.
Theirs always a big if. If Joey was still around today i think we might still have a 250 or a 125 TT Race or even both.

I think we need to give the fans what they want a bit of something different the TT today revolves around Production based racing.
Call the Class the Leighweight TT and as Cargo said open it up to Singles of up to 800cc, 4 Cylinder 4 strokes of up to 400cc, V twins up to 650cc,
250cc Production based 2 stroke twins and 125cc GP bikes or something along them lines with no restrictions. Run it as one race if you look back at the singles , supersport 400 and 125 classes they all have lap records within a few miles an hour of eachother .

As for practice,s you could maybe do it like this on the first saturday night split the sessions then let all the bigger bikes like supersports and superbikes have monday night to themselves and then split tuesday night and so on through the week till the friday. As i said earlier these are just my own thoughts on the subject .

Just looking through my collection of programmes the lap speeds were as follows 125cc 110mph+ Singles 112mph + and 400cc 112mph+ so theirs not a lot between them all really.

But as my late father used to say if My Aunt had test tickles She,d be my Uncle.
I dont know for sure but i think the fans would like to see something a little different even if it is only to celebrate the 100th year of this great event.
I think it would be a great race if not just very interesting for the fans.
