Over the years there have been a number of board games set up to be "TT RACE GAMES" but all of them have used formats like Ludo, Snakes and Ladders" etc to try to whip up a TT feeling but did not make the grade. When I patented my board game the reference books showed a number of patents for race games so I had to go through the lot to determine that mine did not copy any other.

I feel therefore, very proud to have produced a game which is unique, giving actual lap speeds and being able to represent the racing rather than depending on "Up a ladder, down a snake" methods.

Waddingtons saw my game early on and said they had not seen my format before but turned down production because "motorcycling was a minority sport"....

So thanks to a bunch of investors, supported by a number of riders and TT friends, the IOM Tourist Board, Geoff Duke and my rich uncle George, I got it up and running and have had varying demands for it ever since.

I had hoped Honda might have considered using it this coming year since, using a sliding scale we can simulate lap and race records over a number of years.

Thanks for your "Plug" Helen, all I need now is for someone to invest a few quid with me to get the 2009 edition on the go.
