RE: Is it a Record
There is zero chance of a one make series. With so few TTs in a year the manuafacturers would be so alienated that it would cause more harm than good. Plus many riders are contracted to specific manufactuers/teams so there would be fewer entries than there will be in the Senior this year. Many riders would hate it.

Why would you want to replace a supersport race? They are the closest races of the week by far (when all the engines are within the rules). There should be more, not less.

To fill a TT grid with 100 riders and create a gap for the leaders is easy - start the first 30-40 in singles and the rest in pairs.

To add another class to the TT.... Maybe production 125 bikes. They cost less than GBP4,000. There are around 5-6 manufactuers releasing new bikes. Cheap and affordable racing that does not require 120mph laps to enter. Would bring a new bread of riders to the TT. The class is also relavant to the buying public.

I wouldn't go replacing any classes at the TT, just add a three lap event like the one above to Saturday or Friday.

I overheard a boy yesterday saying there is only the superport on Wednesday then the big race left and that is it! Disappointed at seeing a parade of Ducatis instead of a race I guess.

Stands to reason that if you have a field 50% full, there will be less riders lapped. Also stands to reason that once the top 20 go through you spend more time looking at the hedge opposite.
