You know I can't read properly. :lol: and your right the parameters for what qualifies does seem a little odd. That's another reason why C1 or similar would work if more people entered. |
1C rules were written to run along side Superbike and Supercup. or should I say fit in between. Not written to compete against those classes for the bikes but to offer a class where as with most Ducatis, they are a bit more than standard road bikes but not full on Superbikes As I see it my 1000SS could run in Supercup my 996 with a few minor changes (ie remove a couple of the trick bits) could run in Class 1C and my 955 Corse could run in Superbike. Neil what changes would you like to see to Class 1C rules if any i'm thinking Possibly allow Open choice of wheels providing they remain 17" |

I don't think anything needs changing Kev, just more interest generating. The reason I am going to TSGB next year is that GESB has it's own grid and you get 4 races over the weekend. |

Just a horsepower limit of 140rwbhp...................... |

That then envolves tuned 4v Water-cooled engines which is catered for by the Superbike class and would really move the goal posts away from anyone wanting to run a Air-Cooled 900 or 1000. I've seen quite a few less than 120 rwbhp Ducatis doing trackdays, with all sorts of goodies bolted on to improve the handling and thats where Class 1C is aimed |

Also has the likes of Lee Revely on his RSV and probably Chris Norris on his RSV, going to be hard (and probably expensive) for a standard 996Bip to compete against them, I watched Lee Win the SoT race at Castle Combe a few weeks back beating Paul Willis on his RC8, 10 years ago I was watching Paul's son James win races on his RSV, the only bike that really had the beating of James was Phil Bevan's Ex INS BSB 996RS |
Lee's is only putting around 125bhp, so not to far of a decent 996. I think Pieman will have a good look in there. |
does seem a little mad that you can fit radial calipers in A DD but cant have similar set up in 1C when you have twice the power. Stick a 140 limit on it and my little 848 could join ;) |
I didn't realise 848s were 10 years old and i can't recall Ducati fitting Radial brakes to production based bikes in 2002. Maybe my memory is going |
missing the point Kev...being over 50 deosnt mean you become quite so forgetful yet :0 DD rules have moved on to accomodate enhancements so why limit 1C to its original format? And equally why limit the production, if its a change to the overall limit to increase the class to more than an average of 1 per race, and with Craig not racing how many next year..1? 2? Be nice to get half that grid as C1 and expand the club even further :) |
