....our club day at Ruapuna on the 15th January will incorporate a new class set of trophies....three to be raced for on the day....Pre 89 0-250cc.....Pre 89 251-500cc and Pre 89 Open...we have not finalised the mechanics of it yet...next committee meeting should have it sorted out...only open to Pre 89 machinery and must be MNZ compliant with the rules....no exceptions....bit unlike CAMS isnt it....
Retirement with a cause
Why is the cut off point 500cc ?? . Junior classing takes it to 600cc under normal ruling . Are you just trying to be a bit diff or do you want the 550 - 600cc guys to simply try harder to beat the open class bikes ?.

....no...just waiting for a post like this so that the classing can be sorted...CAMS being a classic club has never had new fangled stuff like Pre 89 to sort out...noted and will be discussed and acted on... cheers...when Pre 82 came along some years ago, our club dragged its heals over inclusion of that class...eventually we were able to drag it in with a lot of dissension from the dyed in the wool old time classic brigade...it seemed to take a long time to get anywhere with it, because of this....CAMS would like this class to hit the ground running down south and any thoughts from up your way where it seems to be going strong are welcome....

What I have always wondered is - Where did the Pre 89 class evolve from? Why not pre 90? Just wondered........

End of the decade, and before a another major change in technology (USD forks) which was not really prevalent. ZXR400's were the only proddie bike, and some speccy works bikes or like with early Ohlins and WP's
Class structure capacity limits are structured on F2 style cut off, but allowing oversize for wear on multi cylinder 2 strokes. ie RG400's / NS400's with bore job are in, but RG500's are out given that's what the RG and RZ raced like here at the time.

My VFR400 might be reassembled and running by then. oooooooh...

And the 3rd round of the South Island Cup is the next day apparently. Did they run the second round anyway? Dont think so - anyway - as you were..........

Pre 89 includes 89, same with pre 82 and pre 72
I think it started out being called Period 72 and 82 and the name just changed over the years.
Someone will know the ins and outs of the name

Given the Wyndham result, if a 600 wins outright does he get the Open trophy too?
The gorgeous Moriwaki Honda in Teretonga pre 89 is said to be coming up for the Cams Xmas meeting but possibly not for this January meeting.

.....a young rider from down here cleaned up a club day 89 class...not the biggest field but with some big capacity 89s ridden by some pretty competent riders , on his cbr250r....the winning margin was that big that it looked a bit silly, on paper....whatever we do...it wont be right....guarantee it...

Oh, I agree....and if Sid brings the OW01 up from the South it will be interesting to see if he can master it on Ruapuna.
In any of the post classic classes rider ability counts for more than engine size.

....just have to look at the Black Betty mahine and rider to reinforce that ...

Now he just needs to stop blowing it up, fuck he's hard on gear

Those classes sound good cos a fat bugger on a 400 is enough of a disadvantage against other 400s let alone 600s.
