Vintage Racing LDR AND ECK 2011

[butcher bergs]

That's what I'm hoping for but I know with some race organizations if it's not specified in the rule book the answer is no. Just trying to figure out if this is true with USCRA

So do said two bikes encompass two bikes qualifying to run vintage or is it your SV and the FZR. If it is two vintage bikes than maybe you should loan one out to the LDR crew that is looking for a bike that fits the rules? Just sayin'!

I'd rather crash KB's bike than Bill's again. Plus how much fun would it be to race AGAINST each other Clahkie?

[KB]

There are two fzr's one with a blown motor and one with a good motor. 2 bikes combined to make one good bike.

its like Voltron

[Kurlon]

How badly blown is the bad motor? I have a roller, I'd love to have the rest to start restoring it back to being a 400...

[Jay Phinizy]

Ugh that sucks. They had done it labor day in the past?

I do appreciate the info though. Thanks!

.... you can still hang around for the Labor Day Monday race and do the same classes as you would for the enduro as well as 125's, too!

Do both Labor Day Monday and the two day event..... just don't forget belly pans...

If Clarkie finds a bike, I may have more than one spot open. We will have to see how this whole thing plays out. Right now it seems like forever before the first race even.

I am definately going to try to run a few vintage events, it's fun being considered a "fast" bike LOL.

Nah. Too expensive. If the classes were cheaper I might consider it.

[Johnny B]

I don't think there's any class a motard would fit into.

[lrrs428]

[Kurlon]

The USCRA frowns on motard style machines in general. I think it's something about the wider bars at a higher level than the clipon/clubman setup they usually see that worries them. They had a class for XR100s and required a clipon/clubman conversion for even those machines.
