RE: MMCC and enterprise dept to discuss Manx Grand Prix
What was wrong with the old classic format when they ran as MGP Classic races? They still attracted some top TT riders such as Farquhar, Martin, MD, Joey and Lougher to name a few.

But yes it is sad at how the MGP racers seem to have been reduced to a side show at their own event, they don't even mention the MGP on the Classic TT coverage. Something I've always liked about the Manx is when you look at old programs and magazines and you see the names of current TT frontmen like MD, Hutchy, Ivan Lintin, Jamie Coward and Dominic Herbertson listed in the Manx GP and look at how they've really come on. Great way for a rider to get up to TT speed without going to the TT, I think I saw an article with Ivan Lintin where he described the Manx as giving you the chance to learn to walk before you can run.
