NEW! 3 races each weekend including qualifying and warm up.
NEW! Modern Classic motorcycles from the age of Kawasaki ZX7RR’s, Yamaha YZF750, Ducati 916 etc. All will be 750 cc 4 cylinder, 975cc triples or twin cylinders up to 1000cc.
NEW! Minimum rider age is 30 years old
NEW! Bikes must be older than 10 years on 1st March 2012

Seems a good compromise; and allows DD mates to race with big bike mates

Sounds good. Same problem as golden era with the possible missiles from WSb..but at least it'll be alongside DD. I like that !

Not really, its like DD.. 2 races in one and the front A's are missiles to most B's. Superbike Class ( gert big bikes, money no object ) and Supercup as close to original as possible, few mods allowed.

Pre-March 2002 bikes... you might be able to sneak a 998R in there, otherwise it'll be a 996R instead.

It's looking like a 996 is the end point really then. I'll only need a stock one anyway cos the pieman will somehow have managed to detune his to 50bhp by the first race!
