Zero emissions bikes to get own series

[Bob]

A four-race series for Zero emissions, battery powered motorcycles is to launch in 2010, according to a new body, the Zero Carbon Racing Championship.

Rules and regulations are yet to be announced, but the basis would appear to be the TTXGP.

Is carbon fibre carbon neutral?

good question - the batteries they run in them are full of all types of evil shit.

It's a big greenie wank.

Bluddy good idea though.
I want to see some "proper" racing from them not just the time trialing IOM style.

Zero Carbon is bullshit. There is almost nothing you can manufacture that doesn't create Carbon emissions at some point along the line - not that I care too much either way, but the marketing gimmick pisses me off wholesale.

Will still be good to see the electric bikes being developed though :2thumbsup
