    8. I propose we combine MVGTU and MVGTO in one race and STGTU and STGTO in another race. Combine the modern vintage and combine the super twins classes.

    What problem would this solve? Right now MVGTU runs with STGTO, and MVGTO runs with STGTU... We would still be running 2 races, and this change would prevent people on GTU bikes from being able to "ride up" in the GTO classes (or people with a GTU bike and a GTO bike from being able to race both bikes).

    Everything works out in the end. If it hasn't worked out, it isn't the end!

    I agree that this isn’t a good idea.. for years there have been two types of classes in the MRA. One is th ultra competitive like ROR or Open superbike and two “ gentleman’s” classes, In my opinion there equal numbers of people in the super competitive as are in the gentlemen classes, if you start to push one group out and cater to the other group…membership and entries will begin to fall. If you are going to squeeze a gentleman’s class out you need to squeeze a another out as well
