WTF? It is almost cheaper to get a licence, get a mountain course licence and find a driver who needs a passenger!

That way you get access to the start line, winners enclosure, can probably blag your way into the press conference, have a trip better than the car and have hospitality at Joanne's Place and be hosted by TT Legend KEW.

What more could you ask for?

Oh, no... does this mean KEW will now be selling tickets and it will cost us a packet to be insulted? :o

Does solve his sponsorship problem, though... wonder if we could claim ownership and make him a sidecar racing funding stream....

In that case can we expect dozens of Subaru's doing countless laps again ?

I'm going to buy myself a hospitality package.
It seems that I will be looked after a lot better than the bloody competitors.
I will have reserved parking at the top of the paddock instead of being in the swamp half way down to the prom.
I'll have wi fi that works.
A seat in the grandstand.
Free food and DRINK.
All for a lot less money than being a competitor. :? :? :?

Sounds about right Tim. Mind you look on the bright side you can now stand on a special platform at Rhencullen to watch them. It must be well protected and safe, because you haven't been able to stand and watch there for the last few years because it was to dangerous.Perhaps your safe because you've paid?.

Sniping Dick!,I have heard on the grapevine some brewery from Belgium might be having a hostility suite at Foxdale (if the tents not nicked) during TT, free entry and butties included, if your in a fit state to eat. Also maybe chance of a lap in a Tranny van.

I know the tt has moved on since dad competed, but I just feel they are trying to run it like a 'short circuit' meeting, IMHO. I also know safety etc has been improved. It also appears that unless your a 'name' your just another number. I don't want to offend as I am no longer involved, but maybe they are forgetting the guys in an old transit, who invest everything they have Ro do the tt.

That's the whole point ! - they do not want "the guys in an old transit" anymore - don't forget - this is a premier world class event...

Without those guys there is no tt!! We will always need the 'names' but there's only what, 10-15 BIG solo names, handful of sidecars, that doesn't make for a good 'festival' imho

Couldn't agree more - that's why I've not been to the TT for a good few years...(and there's no 2 strokes :( )
