Maybe I’m an exception to the rule but on an open road I find the faster I drive the harder I concentrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non-Believer Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 It's certainly provided plenty of ammunition for an all Island speed limit that one expects will be taken full advantage of by its proponents. I can personally see a 60 being put in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gettafa Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 I doubt it will be the last TT but as with just about everything in the world, it's going to be different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll not be the last TT. The TT's an udder that's going to get milked even more in the name of rebuilding the finances, you can bet that. When the circumstances allow it of course. Unfortunately that milking will also be nails in the coffin, in the same way that the last 10-odd years have been. Commercialism sucking the lifeblood out of it and rendering it too expensive for the masses. Incidentally, I was hearing a tale the other day about certain teams and individuals demanding payment of their start monies because of the cancellation of this year's event. Anybody confirm?
