One change this year was the 'safety' barrier to prevent the scouts from falling off? Obscures the view of the later lap times!!

As these boards were in use at St Johns in the early days, could official figures be released to show the actual number of times over the past 100 years that a scout has fallen off the scoreboard? It never happened when I was a scout and hasn't happened since as far as I'm aware?

All these 'small' changes add up to an event that loses it's magic. The blackboard that displayed road conditions was changed at some expense for an electric device this year, why?
Just another little piece of nostalgia chucked away for no good reason.

At this rate the TT will just become a poor copy of BSB!
