It would be good to see some proper racers again, but IMHO if the TT course is "dangerous", then the Billown circuit is lethal - especially with massed-start races. It would be interesting to see comparative statistics for the two circuits, especially in recent times. My cynical mind says that rather than de-tune the power of bikes racing the Mountain course and spend some money installing some electronics - cctv, roadside warning screens - to reduce the number of human marshalls needed, the powers-that-be will move the races to the Billown circuit in stages, then when there is a tragedy, stop them altogether. Or am I way off beam?
MGP '68 & '69; TT 1970-74
