AMCC - Open Twins

[R6_kid]

Is this still going to be happening?

When is the first race? How many races in the series and will there be variation in the tracks?

I've searched google and KB but can't find any information on it.

[Blackflagged]

What Pro Twin AMCC style? Or something new?

[R6_kid]

I heard they were going to run a class for twin cylinder bikes of any capacity, so somewhat suitable for my TRX850 which is not eligible for F2 or F3, and is too slow for F1.

The AMCC website is very bare and seems to only have information about buckets uploaded.

AMCC have run this class in their club rounds for the last couple years now. eg. Dobsy on his 999 against SV650s

Oh ok... I was under the impression it was a new thing. They don't run a winter series do they?

Any idea when their first race meet for the year is?

BAH! Wish I'd known about this a lot earlier!

Pro Twins 650 are production based, but I've seen some fairly modified Open Pro Twins, so what does the pro stand for in the latter ?

My TRX850 is far from standard so I hope that isn't a problem!
