Quick update. The rulebook is done. Copy sent to RACE beginning of this week for them to personalize. Michelle is out of town, it will be posted Friday or Saturday on the site. Also 2014 SOAR Banquet and Awards to be held again at the Irish Hall March 7th, 2015 details to follow shortly.

I can do it. Like mentioned though may be cheaper to find a used engine though.

Still working on OBC

Just a quick update guys. Sorry for the delay I came down with what is best described as the plague and had to cancel my Jan 12 meeting with RACE to sort the few sticking points out. So unfortunately that left emails to sort it out taking a bit longer. What I can tell you is we have sorted 600...

Welcome to the thread Michelle :) and GTAM as well. There are many racers from both orgs on this site. Great place to throw ideas around. On a side note Chris just sent me an email if your talking to him let him know I am on my way out and will have a look later and get back to him.

Guys I love all of your passion I really do (on both sides) The ONLY reason that I am in this discussion is to try and get out as much as I can as early as I can. I know it messes with people and I am sorry I really am. However the mission ahead remains the same. We have no choice about doing...

There is a small bore class in the plans not sure of a name yet. It will be a catch all for all the little bikes. You guys did come up in the conversation and we are altering my original Lightweight Superbike to include a small bore production option just for this scenario (Chris's idea just...

This just reinforces that the rules/classes are a mess. The sportsman classes were ill thought out when they were introduced in the early 2000s. I was there when all this happened there were three very well attended classes. Lightweight Superbike, Twins & Club Cup. An imported BC RACE referee at...

Not that simple. I cannot get liabilty coverage in US. It would also mean all of the staff would have to be granted US work visas and that would be unlikely being there are us series and workers that are already doing that job (a pre-requisite for a B-1 visa is that you are not taking a job that...

The more that I hear regarding how masters works/or doesnt as well as how many or rather how few ten year old bikes actually race in Sportsman it looks more and more like 12 and 40. As for a final because we live in Canada and do not enjoy a southern track (Road Atlanta for WERA and Daytona for...

Both rulebooks will be exactly the same. Its the only way a runoff can work otherwise at final the 12yo bikes are running against the 10yo anyway. When you download either rulebook from either site they will be identical with exception to header and operational stuff (penalties, registrations...

Chris is suppose to get the numbers too me this week. Then it will be decided. There are a few things that needed further input so hopefully we get all of it by weeks end. I will be able to get final draft done and posted sometime next week.

We didnt have a year. RACE was not going to be there at all without this happening in 2015. Mr Gautier told me that 2014 almost didnt happen. Again Kellen lets not get all upset here until its decided 100% my feeling is it will remain as is. I am trying to be as open as I can to allow as much...

OBC is also under development as RACE has 40 plus w/10yr experience. The guys that do it like it that way but my position is its detrimental to the class as to be honest few people race that long and the class is too punative. Many riders do it so there isnt as much stress etc. So RACE is...

04 and 05 same, 06 changed the head and had a HP bump so 04 and 05 are like type and design 06 will be out because of significant change

Ummmm Brian your "traditional" is covered in Vintage. 650 twins are included as they are also orphans and have to compete with aircooled Ducati's up to 1000 and pushrod bikes like BMW1200. Much better fit against a built FZR/EX IMO. As for the guy who started VRRA P4 against HUGE resistance I...

We are not interested in competing with the VRRA for world vintage domination. The idea for LE was always to give the "tween" bikes a place to race. Meaning those that are not cutting edge compared to todays bikes but not old enough to be vintage. That really hasnt changed. As Tim is pointing...

Somewhat agree, however as happens in VRRA all the time people's perception of what is and isnt old is attached to their own age. You ask an 18 yo whats old you get a VERY differnt answer than someone late twenties and early thirties, then again to someone late forties to fifties.......... The...

UMMMMM NO! All new bike. The 2006-year's GSX-R600 has a new engine and new chassi. The 2006 GSX-R600 is lighter, faster and more powerful than any of the earlier models. Scaled down in size but with a significant increase in power, the 2006 Suzuki GSX-R600 is now 15 mm shorter in overall...

Dont panic yet its been talked about NOT done yet.
