TTXGP
TTXGP are the official promoters of FIM eRoadRacing, the world's premier electric motorsport race series. Founded by Azhar Hussain MBE in 2008, TTXGP started life as the first zero-carbon, clean-emission race to take place at the Isle of Man TT as teams from around the globe raced electric motorbikes.
TTXGP then grew to become a world championship before the company took up the official role as promoters of FIM eRoad Racing when TTXGP and FIM e-Power joined forces in 2013.
==How TTXGP Started==
The TTXGP was a new event for the 2009 Isle of Man TT races. It was promoted by Azhar Hussain, who took the idea forward after a number of different Manx individuals had had the initial idea. Engineer Peter Hindley and civil servant Brian Hammond had proposed the idea of a zero-carbon TT motorcycle race on the Isle of Man to the IOM government in 2008. Ex-racer Phil Corlett had separately also been talking about the idea in 2008 and before. Phil lives two doors down from Peter. Peter Hindley's proposed format, which was largely adopted, was based on that of the original 1907 TT race which valued fuel economy as well as speed.
The 2009 TTXGP was a one-lap, race for racing motorcycles "powered without the use of carbon based fuels and have zero toxic/noxious emissions."〔''REGULATIONS - 2009 International Tourist Trophy - Isle of Man 30 May - 12 June'' p37-40 ACU Events Ltd (2009)〕 For 2010 the event was replaced by TT Zero, also created for zero-emissions motorcycles. In 2010, Hussain organized electric motorcycle races in North America and Europe that culminated in a world championship race in Albacete Spain.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.egrandprix.com/news.php?id=169 )〕 The series expanded to include Australia in 2011 along with races in the United States and Europe.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.egrandprix.com/2011calendar.php )〕
