Aust. Classic Nats-Championship Classes

[52]

Pre-75 Solo 4-Stroke All-Powers. If this race read Pre-75 Solo All-Powers it would be 1. a 2nd ride for riders with only 1 bike
                                                                                                                  2. the most subscribed race   
                                                                                                                  3. have all the age divisions
At the Ranch I will circulate a petition to effect this change. If their are any objections please let me know.
                                                         Thanks Peter Lee.

Its a bit late now classes are set

[colmoody]

gdr you are right in respect of classes set for this coming weekends Dirt Track Nats but i think with what Peter is proposing he has more of an eye on the future and I reckon he's on to something.

if you turn it into pre 75 unlimited
as per gcrs sliders can ten race in the same race as well
just an other option

Dont sliders already have a class

[jimg1au]

the class that is used is pre84 ie anything upright.ma gcrs state sliders can ride in unlimited races alongside the other bikes,
so if it was pre75 unlimited the pre75 sliders and there are lots of them can ride in there RIGHTFULL YEAR CLASS.
those guys with pre75 mx bikes would they like it if they had to race with 1983 year mx bikes
so why not abide by the ma rules and run unlimited races including sliders
cheers

If there are alot of sliders in ths year why not run a class for them .I just do not agree with them running with mx bikes.

[Curly3]

No offence gdr but what do you think happened in the day?

[gdr]

I relise that , but we also run crf450s ,and when the put the sliders in that class there was mayham ,as soon as you keep the slider on the inside of you and they are not sliding they are out of control.

i whatched a race at raymond terrice 2 weeks ago 250cc 4 stroke and the crfs had no problem with the 1 slider that was racing with them.AGAIN MA RULES 125,250 SLIDERS CAN RUN WITH MX.
the reason for this is they couldnt catch him.he won 4 from 4
look out aust longtrack champs at blaney move over mx bikes,there will be 1 quick 250 suziki slider
cheers

I did mean it when I said no offence and its good to have differing opinions, but we are talking Classic Racing and I don't think there will be many crf450's there this weekend. In the day it was one in all in and it was rare ( but did happen ) that an MX bike was a challenge to the dominant sliders. I understand keeping modern bikes seperate but I don't see a problem with the classic stuff.
Having said all that I must point out that it's easy for me to say as I'm not riding this weekend.
It seems to me that the Sliders are treated as "Leppers" these days but were the Kings when I was involved.
What number are you riding gdr, I'll catch up with you at the ranch.

just thinking after posting that post.its just a few who want sliders banned so armed with motorcycle australia general compititin rules,sliders can ride in the 125 class,there was 1 at nepean nsw champs.the 250 class and also the unlimited.
yet classic events they want to segregate them in the sup regs.
funny thing rules
cheers
