    This way the remaining classes can have more track time in the likes of VMCC. If something gets too big just snap it in half !!!
    Its all just thinking aloud so put the shot guns and attitudes away folks.

    When did the Post Classic club say no pre89s, i think at some of the street races they run pre 82 only,

    Until recently (ie through 2006/7/8) if you have seen a pre89 bike at a street meeting which was running to MNZ rules , it shouldn't have been there unless it was specifically allowed in the supp regs. Pre 89 did not exist until only late last year at a formal level/MNZ rule level. The collary being that most events are stated as running to the MNZ rule book....

    I'd say Wanganui let some in a couple of years back cos they didn't know any different....and assumed the riders did.

    They don't neccesarily allow them but people have entered under the impression that "Post classic" is pre 89 when that label was always used for the Pre82 class and then they have been allowed to run as there seems to be no system checking class eligibilty at entry or scrutineering

    Thats exactly what happened in 2006, I emailed the organisers about it but didn't get a reply

    Since MNZ recognised pre '89 last year, methinks it was for the benefit of the streets more than nationals.

    And club racing, Post classic isn't run as a National class although they run their own NZGP meeting (Taupo Oct 31st)

    Yes they do. check their web site and down load an entry form for this year.
    There is a post classic pre '89. I guess the pre '82 will race in the same class.
    I might see you there.

    Hows this for a idea?

    2 separate Post classic races

    Post Classic pre 82 and 72

    Late Post Classic (or another name, any ideas welcome) Pre 95 and pre 89

    We want more bikes on the track and more spectators. Taking the family out for the day can be a good day out , even if so said family doesnt know anything about bikes. The main (visual) difference between Pre 89 and pre 82 is huge . A ZXR400 compared to a RD350LC is light years apart. Even Joe bloggs who doesnt know much about bikes can see the full fairings ,USDs and 3 spoke mags and wide slicks ect, compared to the pre82/72 bikes,

    To get this pre95 class going should not bump off the pre82/72 bikes to another class (DANGEROUS CLUBMANS, bad rider on a R1, Good rider on a FZR600 doing the same lap time). What is needed is all the Pre 82 and 72 bikes to get back on he track to allow the New pre95/89 class. There used to be heaps of pre 82 and 72 bikes racing. were are they? Did they all get parked up when pre89 started? Pre 82(junior) can be a cheap class. GS550 , XJ550, GPZ550, LCs ,X7s ,all competive bikes and dont break the bank. Pre 82 senior is a different story as you all know by the AWESOME 1000s racing.

    The other problem is were can this new proposed class fit in on a race day? There is only so much time on the day for all the classes. What class could go if this did work? Clubmans bikes all done on laptimes to race in what ever class suits there speed?

    This post is in " a new excitinging class of racing" as well as they seems to talking about he same thing

    The 'yes' votes look promising. There's already more 'yes' votes on our little forum thingie than pro twins and 125 riders. Maybe if the 'yes' voters gave me their names we can further discuss and perhaps convince the PMCC or summit to run this as a class in summer and see how it all goes?

    Oh umm..small matter of figuring out the exact rules.

    If they all tell us to bugger off then we just start our own little club and do it ourselves.
