The Place

yes no practice till monday now also paddock will not be open till saturday

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.

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.

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 .

"Operation Stack" will have to be used then

Sounds like a job for Helen(local Knowledge)

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

Hi
if i have to put up my tent twice i will not come.
2 lapes less (sat. practise) for practise and the paddock sh...(reservation of paddock places)
They know exact how to destroy the TT.
I will see what is going on. Till now, i only spent 20 pounds in reservation of the ferry. Can live with this.

Eckhart... you and your passenger, who is, I am sure, as charming and handsome as you... can stay at my house if need be....
I am trying to find out what is happening and also why.

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

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

Anyone know of an unused brewery that they could practice in?
