    ...been getting a few emails , phone calls, word in yer ear, type shit from a lot of interested or pissed off people. Mainly to do with classes racing on the day. ...so here is a little more reiteration of the finer points of the meeting.....1) CAMS are the club running this meeting, we are the club that runs older bikes, hence the name Classic Action Motorcycle Sport Inc, we are generally the club that turns up to Street Race Meetings, have a cool collection of older machines that Joe Public just love to see on the track,love to hang around in the pits, drooling over our bikes, and promoting motorcycle sport is a big part of our ethos, we are also the club that often get their classes pulled so that the meeting can finish on time or where all our classes are grouped together so that faster more modern machinery are tripping over our older classics or where the classics have been thrown in with the buckets, 'cos some twat doesn't really give a fuck about us as a club. Back to 1) This is a CAMS meeting

    2) The invitation F1 class is there as the Modern ,Premier Class, Joe Public likes to see that kind of stuff too. There is only room for 18. Real hard to fit 40 or 50 into 18, doesn't work.

    3)Joe Public really loves Motards, really, really, really loves Motards, beats me, but they do.

    4) The Miniature Road Race Class (Buckets),are a popular class at most events and put on a spectacular and entertaining show, they are also closely linked to CAMS in general club day stuff.


    These are our classes, seven on the day, we intend to get through the day with all rounds being completed for all classes with a couple of feature races at the latter part of the day.

    I have had it that we are running an unbalanced meeting.... as far as we are concerned it is balanced perfectly...

    Joe Public is what these street meetings are about, entertaining them, promoting to them, keeping them safe.

    CAMS is not here to bow down to any tom dick or harry that thinks things should be run their way, because they have a faster bike or bigger ego or are just fucked off that they cant race in a class that isn't there.

    As far as a lot of our club members are concerned the premier class is the one, they ,are riding in.

    If you feel you must race at this meeting , borrow a PC or even a Classic, or a bucket.

    I wouldnt expect more in the future, ya dont see classics at the nats do ya, invites you must relise anr for two main reasons, 1st for those riders that if they had not put so much effort into street racing then it would not exist which mean we would not be having this chat, 2nd for the intertainment for the spectators, again with out them there would be no racing, as an aded bonus to knowbodys like me they get to see some of the fastest knowen riders and bikes race, riders that know street racing as the last thing CAMS need is joe knob on a GSXR causing greif.

    People like the retards so they get a class and CAMS suport buckets and have the largest numbers so understandably they get a class aswell... so yeah, ya beter get a bucket.
    cheers DD

    fair nuf. If you can run a sustainable, sucessful meeting with what you got then good for the CAMS crew, any racing is better than no racing. Look at BEARS, they manage to hold the biggest SI meeting (in my opinion) and exclude large portions of the racing community.

    I merely hope that it gets extended cause id like to race there. bit of jealousy haha.
