The bit about the paddock not opening till Saturday Dean. They used to say this years ago. Can you imagine the rush to set everything up in two days. The ferries cant bring everything over at the last minute ,so would everyone be scattered arond the Isle of Man till the paddock opens. ;) I do think its a good idea to trim the event down a bit,it might help the entries? One year we came over on the Wednesday before practice , by the time Saturday came I was ready for home. My last TT in 2003, I got off the ferry at 7pm and was out for practice at 8.30pm ,much better. :D

Hi
we are planing to come the saturday before to go around with a car all week before the practise. Where to stay at this time?
I may have to think about going to the TT. Even the places in the paddock will be given, so we cant take the one at the time we are coming. ( as i heared)
All turns into agains the competitors.
Bye Eckart

When the Fsra spoke to the Acu they were adamant that no admittance to paddock until the Friday due to no practice till Sunday . They did say the likes of Honda etc were over the moon about it as 3 days less wages for 40 people . I personally don't want to go till the last minute so I don't have as much time off work .

I can only suggest parking up in campsites, such as the one at Glen Vine, and staying in the truck. If anyone wants baths or clothes washing, I'm happy to help. PM me. x

2 lapes less (sat. practise) for practise and the paddock sh...(reservation of paddock places)
They know exact how to destroy the TT.

Hi Helen,
thanks for your offer.
It is not trying to find an arrangement, it is much worse to what it was 3 years ago. I dont want to do the TT and not enjoying it. I was planing now for a long time and want to enjoy it. It looks like i wont. so i leave it and go to Hengelo instead.
Bye Eckart
If you know something official let us know. It is not to late yet.

But as usual Dean, youd be concerned about the F2 bit. ;)

Anyone know of an unused brewery that they could practice in?
It is true about the sidecar family - you can stop racing but you can never, ever leave!
