RE: Last year for Manx Radio TT?
Whilst I'm not sure we need a complete change at Radio TT, but I do think a refresh is well overdue.

For example, with some of the older commentators, having them give a pre & post race preview/review with a few anecdotes thrown in, would be far better than having them commentate on a race, which IMHO they do badly.

For me, improving consistency in reporting of the factual information, for example: time difference to 1/10th of a second clearly communicated would be far better than rushing through a time-sheet to an irrelevant 1/1000th of a second during the race, giving more time for information on those further down the field. Commentators having technical knowledge of modern machines would be nice. Also if we could get some funny adverts back - Kenny Everett's Honda adverts spring to mind - than that would be good too!

I'm sure others on this forum have suggestions for improvements, but we all have to bear in mind that the TT is a commercial enterprise (whether we like it or not)  so advertisers need to be attracted to add to the bottom line.

If the way to effect change is a complete change, then that's what should happen. However, I think improving what we have is probably a better way forward. I suspect that there is some sabre rattling going on, in order to effect some improvements.
