Well said Hilary. I TOTALLY agree. The lads that do the winning will know that too. However, I am particularly concerned that clearly short circuit tactics will be used to secure a "TT" win, on what is in my opinion a very dangerous circuit.One reason why the TT doesn't start in pairs was to stop a short circuit sprint through Hillberry and down to Governors. I never liked racing on Billown, and I know lots of others of the same mindset. Good luck to those that do, it's a free world, just!
I mentioned earlier, I am delighted, like Hilary that the two strokes have a race, but why not call it the "Southern TT Championship", or words to that effect? There is just no need for this. BUT, Is this the thin end of the wedge? Is this the circuit "they" have in mind for the future, when the anti TT brigade finally have their way?
I wonder that the "organisers" haven't realised that the Clypse circuit failed. It was too difficult to organise, and the winners didn't feel that they had won a TT.
