Hyosung 250 Cup

[Billy]

Part of my position as a member of the roadrace commission entails keeping a good handle on the rules and ensuring they are adhered to,

Whilst checking a few things this morning I noticed that the 2010/2011 GT250R is not a homologated model,Infact no model GT250R is homologated only the GT250 which is the comet model is listed,Meaning that ALL the GT250R Hyosungs racing last weekend at Hampton Downs were illegal.I have advised the chairman of this and he will talk to the people responsible and try and have this resolved.

No action is planned at this stage,However I would advise all competitors planning on attending round 2 to contact the Hyosung distributors and ensure they submit the relevant paperwork to avoid this becoming a problem.

Its just a heads up for anybody that frequents this site and competes on a Hyosung 250,So they have a chance to do something about it.

Hey Billy,

They would only be illegal (If so deemed) if they were competing in a national round of the NZ Champs.
The Hyosung cup is a club level championship, promoted and funded by Hyosung NZ and supported and hosted by AMCC.

Now if they were to enter the pro light series without the homologation approved you could be right mate, but isn't it just a case of making the application etc?
Now cracking down on unapproved mods or removal of material is another matter and clearly needs someone on the scrutineering line that knows what he/she is looking at.

Billy off the Hyosung topic, seems many bikes are missing....scanning that list, if you want to race any BMW, any Ducati which is 999 / 1098/1198, V4 Aprilia, KTM LC8 or a Yamaha 2009 or newer is in the same boat.

Err WRONG!

The Hyosung cup has been promoted as "As per MNZ rulebook" and indeed if you go to the Hyosung NZ website/racing,It even has a link to the Prolite rules on the MNZ website

Any race class run at a meeting where the club is affiliated to MNZ and the supp regs dont alter the original MNZ rules(and they cannot!) are as per the MNZ rulebook,There is no such thing as "just club racing so the rules dont apply",Therefore ANY Prolite 250 race run in NZ is AS PER THE MNZ RULEBOOK.

Yes,Thats correct and we are working to rectify that as we speak.

Yet to catch up with the myth himself from his adventures to another island, though Tyler hasnt cracked it around Roys Hill yet, when everyone has there axle nuts done up correctly and he beats them he'll have done it, so being advanced is only ones word to anothers word. As for 'the next step now'...he isnt the tallest so it cant be all that hard...

Thought we had forgotten about that, my nuts have been tightened and feeling much better now...
