Desmo Due rules
 

The updated rules for the series have been mailed to all registered participants over the Christmas period.

If anyone who has not yet registered for the series wishes to receive a copy of this document then they should e-mail:

desmodue@ducatisportingclub.com

The DSC technical committee will then mail you out a copy.

It would be helpfull if all comments were received back by the 10th of January.

Just a quickie Chris, are plastic petrol tanks allowed under ACU rules?

Paul, this is the relevant point from the rules.........

"1.6.11 Fuel Tank

Fuel tanks must be either OEM Ducati OR made of steel or aluminium.

Fuel tanks with tank breather pipes must be fitted with non-return valves that discharge into a catch tank with a minimum volume of 250cc made of a suitable material."

The later 620ie's are supplied as standard with the "plastic" tanks, so the "OEM" statement validates these as OK to use.

Okay Neil, just didnt want a load of people turning up for the first race and failing scrutineering!

I suppose that our rules fall into line with the ACU rules (which i imagine would take priority)?

Paul,

needless to say the basics of the rules follow ACU/FIM guidelines, with our own interpretation to reduce the modifications that you are allowed to do.

Chris

Go look for the loop holes..!!:lol:

I love rules.. they are only there to be interpreted.....

Andy,

Just watchout for the catch all phrases that we have put in them, wouldn't want anyone to fall foul and be excluded.

In the event of any doubt as to the interpretation of the Rules, entrants should mail desmodue@ducatisportingclub.com and we will give a written response. That way your bright ideas will stay private!

CHris

Plastic tanks should be no problem as Aprilla RS125`s have plastic tanks.

With respect I was only kidding!:D
However, look at all the great motorsports. Fi, rally, WSB, GP, they are all after an angle, I think thats all part of the sport! ;)
