Initial figures promising, says DfE
Initial evidence suggests fans have been spending more money this TT.
That's according to the MHK responsible for motorsport in the Department for Enterprise.
Though official figures have yet to be published, Rob Callister says local economic indicators are positive - though the total number of visitors may have fallen slightly on last year.
It comes months after a government report showed a sharp fall in overall visitors to the Island last year.
He says a combination of good weather and new tourist attractions have made for a busy year:
