That swingarm work out

[Kenneth S (222)]

LOL Ken... who has time to side glance at stickers and badges on other bikes!!???   

I am too busy trying to read the track !!   

  I got nothing. I can't think of one clever thing to say

[head]

...oh sorry Scrivo - I think I would prefer the first option. "Capacity" races, rather than the mix.
Especially at the Lakes track... Those uphills could be interesting with a mix of 125, 250 and open bikes.

I am thinking the same as Hardo, first option.

[Montynut]

Thats 2:1 for capacity based age races. We need a bit more of a cross section of feedback than the red, white and green from Heaven's trio . Hang on Hardo have you suddenly got an EVO bike

[Hardo]

oh... 
I am confused it seems... only EVO are having age class racing.... 

Soz... didnt really absorb that too well....

..well if I were to enter the EVO class, my vote would be for the 1st option.......   

[gdr]

Would be hard for the evo boys .
Race 1 125
Race 2 250
15 min Break
Race 4 125 Age
Race 5 250 Age
Then if you ride up a class to Pre 85 1 race break and it all starts over again .

It's just one of those things Grant. People will have to pick the classes they want to win.

I would like to know what the  actual race format is going to be on the day as that will determine which evo classes and possibly sidecar I will ride there is no way that I would be able to ride  15 min moto,s back to back.  And I would assume we have to pay to ride each class?  Don.t want to turn up on race day and then start dropping classes because I don't want to ride back to back. that's a waste of money in time and effort prepping bikes.

Regs will be submitted to MA early next week & hopefully out a couple of weeks after that.
as per our meeting with Greg on Thursday night, we cannot come up with a format or what classes will be excluded or combined until we have your entries.
wasting everyones time & setting false expectations otherwise
entries will close 3 weeks out from the event so we can get a format laid out & will certainly post to let everyone know
also please read our previous comment (classes only not the race order)

Read the MOMS I even posted it earlier Hardo. You really need to change those 'green tinted' glasses

[Montynut]

Look guys the race order and program is a long way from being set the only thing available on the entry form is the classes offered which will be as per the MOMS. The ‘program’ posted a page or so back was clearly marked as just for discussion as an indication of classes and the resulting time constraints required. NOTHING  MORE. It was not in any way suggested that will be what what will happen at the meeting.

The race order, timing and so forth can only be set once the entries close and we know who has entered what. Every effort will be made to accommodate people to avoid back to back races but if you have more than two bikes then it is very highly likely you will. This would be the case in just about any race meeting I would think. This is not something new it is the same case for every single race meeting.

Let’s be realistic if you enter all three EVO classes and all three age races you are eligible for then you will have back to back races more than once over the weekend and a massive riding workload. If you enter three bikes whatever class your riding workload is going to be high that is obvious. It is your choice to do so, please don’t expect that if you enter three bikes that the race order will be tailored to your requirements that is just not possible or fair to others.

Well said.

What about the non age group race being an all powers race? The 125's are always the smallest group also. I think the Evo 125 age group class will end up being an all in 125 race, scored separately.

[Hardo]

I did read the MOMS Scrivo... (albeit eventually...thru my 'green tinted glasses'  ) thats what the apology was for....   

In any case - I agree with your last post about people expecting meetings to be tailor made around them. Happens all the time.

This is going to be a great event.

We only have a 40 bike grid I would be very disappointed if we only have 40 EVO entries in total.

What you are suggesting is that the age races are the premier class and that is just not the case, well certainly not in a lot of peoples minds.

I know of at least 10 people that want to enter two EVO classes and they are the only classes they have bikes for. What you are suggesting can only be looked at after entries close.

Everyone just need to enter what they want to ride and then a program can be put together that is normal race meeting process.
