| DSC Club Member BSB Star  Posts: 6,367 Join Date: Jan 2003 Location: the garage Mood: www.knightroadraceteam.co.uk open class a for national licence holders properly, not just limited to those who have already raced in the series. would open this section up a tad. keep class b for novice and clubman licence. and dont make the top 3 in the champ points in 583 'have' to move up? surely they will want to go up of their own accord? publish that the rules for mech that will definatley not be changed for 2007 NOW to stop any fannying about over the winter. I cant see any reason not to change them. choose when to start the season by the end of this one and dont change it again only have rider votes at race meetings if really needed get people on the rc who have the time to devote to coming to the meetings. not demeaning the present one but they have had a lot of other things happening. just a few of my thorts but its just my ideas. dom, you make me larf  | |

| Can we get the New Era trophies as well as the Ducati ones? I think we pay the same entry fees as everyone else. Maybe Ducati would like to provide something else? Something different to a plastic trophy - I dunno, T-shirts or caps or sumfing? It's not that I'm a trophy hunter you understand - I just happen to like ummmm, cups? How about some Pirelli caps as well? It's nice to get something other than a 10 minute rush, for your £300 a weekend. Small items won't bust the bank of these companies will it? Is that cheeky? I dunno. I think the DSC and DD are great adverts for any company. We can offer a lot - we DO offer a lot. Spread the love Give out prizes down the field. Ride of the day? Best newcomer/novice? Best impression of a bird of prey? | |

I can do an unladen European Swallow? wait, that sounds a bit iffy! On a serious note, what will happen now that the capacity of the Monster has been hiked up to 695? Obviously the old big bore rules wern't particularly satisfactory due (sic) to the size of the valves in the engine, but things would be different with the new bike. The thing is, that you'll have to include the new bike, as it is the latest model, and also, the older 620 i.e models will start to get in short supply. Mind you, they're the exact same price as a 695  The 695 seems to have been built down to that price though, and only has the cheaper calipers as found on the sport classics, not the ex 916 brakes of the 620 and earlier models. Maybe that weakness, plus the retaining of the standard shock might be enough to negate any power advantage? Just a thought, wouldn't want to decide to race in the series next year, then get told that the brand new 620 i just bought was going to be immediately outgunned by the 695 that ws now allowed in. | ||

why do we have to have the 695...??...the 620 offers competative racing and are fast enough for any of us......there are enough bikes in the market place to support spares for a long time yet....plenty of performance parts etc etc.... IF we have a 695 class the only people that will prolly enter it are 620 riders!!..leading to less again in 620.....i cant see anyone who wants to enter the DD saying " im not gonna enter cos there is no 695 "..no of course not....... Keep it simple 620 OR 583 we struggle enough to get the numbers..let alone if we add a 3rd class......................... Phil | ||

I guess you don't have to have the new bike in the series, and you're right, there'll be plenty of used bikes and spares for use in the series I suppose. I'm not concerned either way, I just wondered if anyone had any clarification of what the rules were going to be. It's just that I'd have thought the series organisers would want to keep up to date with what is happening machinery wise. The simpler the better as far as I'm concerned.  | |
