The TT is not BSB, but like BSB and all other high end motorsport events, it costs money to stage. There are a large number of viewing areas in and around the Creg Ny Baa where spectators can enjoy the TT for free. This is just 300 seats.

We paid £10 each to watch at the Creg last year on the Tower side not the pub side, its a fixed grandstand, toilets were ok and clean, food was ok, PA was very good.

Yes i agree it does cost money to put on like all top end motor sports, but how many top end motor sports force families of young children to take time of work to take care of the kids, and what should they do besides losing wages, keep the kids stuck in the house, No you take them out. Just think what people are trying to tell you push the locals much further and take the chance of losing the races.

A lot of races in other parts of the world are being stopped due to the locals being pee'd off
