More T.T. stars will be able to compete in the Manx Grand Prix, after a relaxation of entry rules by the organising Manx Motor Cycle Club.
A new Post Classic race for two and four stroke machines has been added to the programme. This, along with the classic events, will be open to all T.T. competitors.
Riders who have not started a T.T. for two years, or not won a silver replica in the previous four years, will now be able to enter the Senior, Junior and Ultra Lightweight Manx Grand Prix races.
Another new development will allow riders to enter two races on the same day, provided they are not on the same bike.
