True Production Racing series

[Scoot_6R]

Hey Guys,

I'm not wanting to enter into the little lovers tiff that's goin' on here, but I am curious if anyone knows of any other "production" racing series that's currently running anywhere in the world right now???...... Street Stock 150's about the only class I can think of.... Maybe CBR150 in Oz??

It's a good concept. SS150 has done wonders for the racing scene in NZ.

UK has R1 cup used to have R6 cup, RC8 Cup used to have superduke cup, Now has Harley XR1200 cup all at national level running alongside superbike. They also have over here CB500 cup and lots more at thundersport meetings.

Hi, Cannot make any anouncement about this class as I said a few days ago, there a couple of issues to be soughted out as yet, "IT IS ALL CLOSE"

Please clip and post Push Move this if I have not got it where it should /needs to be anyone

Do they not have the Red Bull Rookies Cup? Is this not a ONE MAKE series to see what youngster can actually ride better than the next? Didn't James Toseland come from something like the Honda GB500 Cup or something? Don't the Poms have an R6 cup...then move the winner of that onto a Superbike?

.

The Poms did have an R6 Cup that has now been replaced by the R1 cup which has now been scraped. The winner of th R6 cup didn't get anything after they won no free entries or nothing it just attracted better teams to him. Look up last years winner and see what he is doing now!! I now live in the UK and am very good mates with Nick Morgan at MSS Kawasaki the Official UK works team. Mention NZ riders over here all you get is Stroud, Slight and Haldane.

I think all you people moaning about costs and wanting to ride your old shitters on the track and race them is riduculous. It's people like you taking up the sponsors and entries from younger riders. If you want to go out on track on your stock bike by all means do it. But there is a time and a place for it. TRACK DAYS!!!

Way to go mate!!!

And do you mean 'Jay' that raced the Museum Hotel ZX6? I could be outta line here...but I think if that's the 'Jay'...he had all sorts of problems with handling 'issues'. Does anyone know if his (if that's the 'J' in question) ZX6 was running stock suspension??? Bet it wasn't.

Have you tried to set one of those bikes up?? NO you haven't. They struggled with it in WSS. MSS Kawasaki had huge troubles trying to get their SSP 600 to behave. Everyone around the world was in the same boat. It was just one of those bikes.

Come the Nationals that bike was working well and he placed 3rd overall. Yes it was difficult to set up.

Hey I'm impressed you know people like that...wish I did. But if you're such an expert on all things racing...don't you find it odd that Stroud, Slight and Haldane all made names for themselves and first got noticed racing PRODUCTION BIKES???

Tool.

Nobody wants to ride "shitters" we are talking about production racing and in this particular thread one-make production racing - with two aims leveling the playing field as much as possible and holding down costs. Hopefully the outcome will be more people racing, a more competitive environment and those with talent being identified and possibly groomed for bigger things. I don't think the aims or the proposed method (debated here as not everyone agrees ) are ridiculous.

Actually you are both out of order. And how about the people who have a silver spoon in their mouth and have earnt it.

[FROSTY:Me]

Theres no such person. To have a silver spoon by implication is a person born into wealth not a person who has created wealth themselves

You're so full of shit, your eyes are brown.

Nah...he's not only cool...but he's 'in the know' mate! Pretty clever too. Know's all about me and what I've ridden, and what I haven't done. I hope to be just like him one day. Probably will be...when I get to 90 and sit there dribbling and pissing my pants.
