One more proposed change and then I'll shut up. Rybo made a suggestion last year for a "Production 600" class. I would like to suggest this class again...I think there is an opportunity to grow the club with this class - I think we might see some of the super street guys move into this class to get started racing. The appeal is the cost factor and it leaves more room for riders to focus on improving their riding and focusing less on buying $3500 worth of suspension mods.
Production 600
4 cyl 600cc
675cc 3 cyl
750cc twin?
Stock fork but valving and spring changes are ok
Stock shock but spring/valving can be changed
Stock wheels
Slip on exhaust
Tuner (pc or bazzaz, etc) no TC, no quick shifter, no blipper
stock braking system, pads and rotors may be replaced with parts of unlimited origin
quick turn throttle ok
Spec tire? I like the idea of a spec tire, IF cost can be brought down. I would like for the club to make suggestions on what would be a good choice for this. I like the idea of a street tire if possible because it eliminates the need for warmers. I don't know if there is a safety problem there, I don't think there is as today's street tires are exceptional.
Please feel free to add to this or discuss.
