not true, the first two years it existed it was carbureted.... same goes for the 97 SRAD 600.Originally Posted By: Van Blaylocksrad = suzuki ram air direct.

I had suggested using the WERA Vintage rules as a yardstick to run the Vintage classes or bring in WERA Vintage so that Vintage racers could get points to go to the Nationals at the end of the year as well as add some cross over events and attract racers from other regions. Looks as if that thought fell by the wayside.
Please put in a real Vintage structure and not some half hearted effort so that racers with older machines have a place to race, these classes can be indexed into the current structure with some mild effort while not adding to the number of existing races on the schedule already.

Bill, I am for seeing you run that bike...and seeing it classed correctly.
Unfortunately the 600 SRAD did not appear until 97 but the 750 SRAD did appear in 96 which would make it legal,I know I am shooting myself in the foot here since the 750 is much stronger than the F3 and with the LW/HW new setup I will have to run against them. I was hoping to see you and your bike Bill for sure the best challenge has been trying to beat the really fast guys so put a 750 motor in that thing and lets have some fun.
Dan, the WERA vintage stuff was discussed at the BOD meeting. Walter is discussing options with Evelyn.
How about letting the pre 95 bikes ride down a class and the 96-97 bikes NOT ride down a class? This would put the SRAD 600 in the heavyweight classics class and the F3 in the lightweight classics class. That way everyone could still ride their existing bikes. just a thought.
I'm surprised...are we really expecting to see such an influx of classic racers to divide HW vs. LW? I could maybe imagine more LW bikes but the 600's would all be HW anyway, right?
Gil, that's hilarious - get a 750 motor and call it a '96...LOL!

I agree but thats what they said they were doing...
this is all confusing....we may need further clarification on this matter.
