There's more than this than meets the eye, chaps.

As I read the news item, the plot seems to be for the Isle of Man ACU Centre to secede from the ACU and reform as a National Federation (FMN) within the World Governing Body (theFIM), with all the duties, costs and administration matters that would then be entailed.

Surely you don't have to go that far??

The Manx Government, through its power on the Organising Committee, surely could bring adequate pressure to bear on the ACU to accept a fresh Management Team to run the TT?

As a starter suggestion, the IOM has a fairly good team running the Manx GP, in the MMMC, plus of course the Southern 100 boys who, in my experience, are the best repeat the best in organising a road race that I have encountered in my years of competition, from 1976 to the present day.

Anybody care to speak to George Peach??

That's for starters - anybody want to come back on this??
