Hi Nick and thanks for those comments.
It seems that you and I are on the same wavelength (why am I not suprised?)
The huge difference between us is that you ARE a TT winner and have
far more right to comment than I do.
I feel that that your suggestion of Southern TT championship is a good one. That or something very similar will do very nicely.
They should not be TT races perse.

I do have one other point that I believe we should discuss.
Because I had to get my ferry back, I could not take in the Steam Packet races (THis having missed the classic races at the start of the festival because of..... you guessed..... Steam Packet sailing changes...)
However, I understand from those who did that there were huge crowds and viewing was limited (not to mention the fact that sme people got into places where they shouldnt) which spoiled it for some.
Now I know we shouldnt expect such enourmous crowds as this, the Centenary TT year, but I woud hope that if the lineup is as good as Paul is working towards, it will still be busy.
My concern is that viewing points are good enough to cope.
Am I right to be concerned about this?
