I would for sure buy into that class. Cheap racing with bikes all using the same parts. They do it in Europe with a spec R6 class, all bikes have a list of parts to use and discounts are set up for the class riders who buy them. It works well for sure over there.

It would be cool to have a spec class similar to the GSXR Cup or the R6 Cup.
I would be in!
i think the yamamaha 125 is a spec bike series in canada

New Class Proposal for 2011:
Formula Short Bus
"Handicapped" by practice times (ala bracket racing) - too fast and you break out.
Start staggered by lap times - fastest guys are held at the line and must go last.
Riders are "released" from the line in such a way that "all" riders have equal shot at checkered flag based on cumulative race time.
Limited to 250cc, four stroke only
I'll sponsor the trophies and field a bike (or two)...
Who's in!?!?

250cc four-stroke
no restrictions on frame or engine or rider or anything
minimum weight requirement of <something> to keep it reasonable?
(I imagine a 250 motard might actually be the bike of choice if one could keep the chassis from chattering like a 13 year old girl. Or, like Marty.)

yeah, if they started at the same time... The mori's would sit at the line for a minute or so... THEN they'd get the green light.Originally Posted by marty
Imagine the entire field coming together as a pack on the last lap. Too fun!

Oh, we'd "come together" alright.Originally Posted by T Baggins
In a big pile. Right at the start finish line.
Bob would love it!

The only problem here is that someone could sandbag practice. I mean, I could go out and practice at 80% so that I dont have much of a handicap.
Maybe we would need to make a certain rule that would DQ riders that ride XX% faster in the race then in the practice?

I CAN HARDLY WAIT!!!!! :shock: :lol:

We can solve this with not giving them practice.Originally Posted by dragos13
Practice is for cheaters anyways.
(So I am told at least. Right Tony?? )

I thought this idea was contrived when Trackaddix tried it...
Maybe we should add a "no strikes" T-Ball game to the mix? :lol:

Already in the works... it will be in the kiddie area next to the petting zoo, across from the diaper changing station.Originally Posted by gsnyder828
Why "contrived"? Brewer has seen it done, AT A VERY HIGH LEVEL whereby the top 3 from 600, 750, and Open ran the "big race" and they sent them out "hanidcapped" based on "likely total time". It provided some very cool racing, and a very exciting last couple laps.
Vanmar did it at their Pony Express Endurance a few years ago and it was a success!
Casey - you would be penalized for sandbagging. If you run faster than you qualified, you would have that time deducted or some such penatly.

It might not happen this year, but I would be totally in for 2011. There is nothing I would like to see more than a spec class in the club. Racer against racer. I don't care if it's 125's, SV's or EX250's. I think it would be a total kick in the pants and I would be on the grid.Originally Posted by dave.gallant

So if, for example, something like Racebikerentals.com were to come to Colorado - there would be interest?

I totally be interested. Two years ago I was looking for a small fleet of "track prepped" SV's to offer as racebike rentals for Chicane.
I lost my real job and the income necessary to do such a thing, so that idea went on hold.
My thought was that the SV actually had some merit in other classes, a racer who had a mechanical or a wreck COULD rent an SV and race it in their MW race if needed, same with the LW guys. It would also give the possibility of creating an SV spec class. The bikes would have been available at my trackdays for riders who wanted to come ride, and also available at race weekends for qualified racers to rent and use.
I'm all for racing smaller bikes, I loved racing my 400 and think our club would be served well by having more "little bike" classes.
Like I said, I don't care what bike it is, I'd be stoked to see a production or spec class in the MRA
