Pro-Twin & Prolite Nats (How many!)

**SWERVE** · 13th November 2011, 18:57

After the reletivly low entries in Ultralight at the tri-series......... and seeing on Ruapuna RD1 entry form that there must be a minimum of 10 entries for classes to run (was 6 last year)
I am wondering if either of these classes will reach the required numbers at RD1 (other rounds it doesnt matter)
Im sure that once we reach HD & Taupo that the Nth Island riders will swell the ranks....... but HOW MANY are going to be at round 1.

Cmon start naming yourselves..........

we will go first SETH DEVEREUX / PROLITE
ANTS SINGER / PROTWIN

others i would say will be at RD1 are( not definate) PROLITE - Angela Charlett - Alex Bowers - Alex Faulkner
PRO TWIN - Cameron Moir - Bryan Hill - Robbie Stokes - Wade van de Arend - Jorden Knowles

I wonder why has it changed to 10 bikes this year? It sounds like this something MC Canty have decided on but surely MNZ would have to have made the decision.

I hope you get your 10 bikes for both classes Merv but it might be cutting it pretty fine based on last years attendance. Likewise, I'm not confident that there will be 10 SS600 bikes at the first round either.

As a side note, I noticed on the supp regs that the wording for the tyre rules for Pro-Twin and 600 Sports Production (is this Super Stock 600?) are different to what the MNZ rules state. They make it sound like you are only allowed a set number of tyres for the 'round' but in the MNZ rules it is for championship races.

ill be there with my brother (pro-lite).. that makes 2 of us...

**lostinflyz** · 14th November 2011, 17:09

i think we can probably add superlite to this list of classes likely to be low on entries.....plus 125's

HHmmmmmm..... you could be right with 125s
Think Superlite will be ok as it caters for so many.
Dont know why its been brought up to 10 from 6.
Because protwin race with superlite (meaning a decent field..even if spectators dont know theres two classes)
Prolite race with Streetstock (and nevera shortage of them)
Agree 6 125s might not be the go on a race of their own.

Think Discodan will be OK im sure there are a few 600ss bikes out there.

Hope we get to see Croft v Devereux fighting for a championship................... plus ive sunk a heap of money into Prolite/protwin

([/QUOTE]

It hasnt changed at all,Rule 4.10.8 states a minimum of 6 entries,Rule 22.8.2 states a minmum of 10 entries,The board have been queried on this with no change at this date,Dont query the roadrace commission,Its out of our hands and we can do no more!

The two rules are completely different! one is a must run rule (10 bikes)and the other is the rule for how many bikes are required at close of entries to be eligible to run a championship, (6) nothing to clarify it is how it reads.

gosh, 2 conflicting rules.. no wonder i'm confused!

i'll be there for the north island rounds in Pro Twin.....

only stink thing is the rule where you have to have a 2 digit race number!
i've had to lay my beloved 266 to rest for the nats and strip it down to just 26

so no one take my 266 while nats are on.. ok!

So,If there are no less than 6 entries recieved before the closing date for round 1 the championship MAY run,BUT the club running each individual round only HAVE to run each class if 10 or more entries are recieved ???

Sweet! I'm entering 10 Yamaha Scorpios in the Scorpio Cup that I just made up. Rules are any mods allowed provided those modifications make the bike slower.
