So if enough Maico or Yamaha or Honda riders want a extra class they should be accommodated too.

I'm sure I can get more Maicos for a separate extra class than four strokes.

Ted will you put up some money for a Maico class or Yamaha class?

I would be all over a cold start Le Mans style Maico only race. It would be a race where outright speed and ability would not be a determining factor. Make it happen next year Kevvy ;D

From what I know all Maico's will require Crack Testing of their backing plate before going on the track because of them exploding in use.... Just another reason why the 4 strokes should be in there instead!

Yep Dave Middleton on a very trick C&J Honda that wouldn't be Evo legal under your proposed rule changes...
Wonder if he's aware of this? Might ask him..

Be the same for anyone with a Geoff Morris HL replica or any other home built HL.

The current rules only mention replacement or replica frames for pre 60 & 65.

This is why they need tidying up, but not to what the QVMX or HEAVEN proposals say.

There is a similar proposal that would allow for things like this to be approved.

I've just made this statement to clarify, not start another debate.

John is talking about the fork

Would they be legal under your reading of it?

My Evo bikes have YZ 465 front ends. It looks like David has interpreted the rules the same as many who will be caught out if it's changed

I know yours are legal. But don't you think the other fork is just too far out there to be just a persons interpretation

Not really, they are the same damper rod forks internally as YZ465. I used 43mm CR480 forks in my 79 and 80 CR250'S in Evo a while back because I believed them to be legal and no one said otherwise..

What a fantastic meeting the QLD Titles were over the weekend! The 4 stroke class was riveting to watch with all 3 place getter winning a  race each, the crowd was mesmerized with the closeness of the racing & the sound of the 4 strokes thundering around the track! We definitely need a 4 stroke class at Conondale Classic!
