Interest in the proposed Isle of Wight road racing meeting has soared since the launch earlier this week, according to one of the team behind the venture.
Two-time TT winner Steve Plater says current rider James Hillier has seen the 12.4 mile course and gave a very positive reaction.
The Diamond Races are planned to take place in October 2021.
