2.10 Cup Classes

C. Only petroleum based unleaded pump gasoline is permitted for use. The onlyoxygenates permitted are MTBE and ethanol in the same quantity as found inpump gasolines. If the motorcycle is found using any other oxygenates the ridermay be subject to penalty by disqualification and/or revocation of points. Someof these oxygenates include but are not limited to: propylene oxide, alcohols,aldehydes, aminodiphenyl, benzene, benzidine, beryllium compounds, brominecompounds, butadienes, chlorinated compounds, chromates, dioxanes, ethylacrylate, ethylene oxide, hydrazine compounds, methylene dianailine, methylnaphthalene, naphthalene, naphthylamine, nitrogen compounds, nitro methane,styrenes, toluidine, xylidine. It is highly recommended that if a competitorwishes to use different fuel types for races outside of 350 Cup and 500 Cup thata different fuel tank is used. The rider is liable for ANY residual elements leftover that may be found during testing.

Proposed change: Remove. Production Cup is a class based on Supersport rules, except for this one clause. If you want to be the idiot spending $40/gallon for +1 hp on your 45hp bike, you should be allowed to. This money saving clause is not going to stop people from racing the class if removed.
