They will be at a C.R.M.C meeting and we dont use slicks in any class solo or sidecar
Just a question nothing else

Yes i understand you never have but why is it a rule that it will never be allowed? Why can there not be an exception if it is right for the period of the class being considered for racing with the Classic club?

The committie do not want to call wet or dry races and all the problems that will cause, changing wheels and so on, we want to make the meeting run as easy as poss

Were any other decisions made at the AGM that could affect 350's / post classic racing with you?

Thanks Richard that makes sense

no it is just tyre's, fit the tyre's and come racing

So we f350s will have to run treaded tyres 
don't think so .more money 
as R H pointed out slicks are in keeping with the era :d I'm not sure I understand Richard saying " you can put it where you like " after all this is a forum for discussion and free views :d and if you don't like the feedback deal with it calmly without a lot of bad feeling 
we are after all ..all sidecar racers :2thumbs: so Richard ...still can't race the Konig with you then :d :d :d

Not on slicks Annette.

as for putting it where you like, I was asked if it could be split to a new thread,
And I have had enough of people always bitching on about the C.R.M.C

We only used to change the rear and sidecar tyres on our Konig anyway. The front is a 10 inch mini, and the other two are Lola 12 inch wheels. So we could race that with treaded tyres and just need to get two. Wouldn't cost that much - a lot of cars run that size.

Just had a look what is available tyre wise.
Demon tweeks ( no I wouldn't buy from them)
sell a treaded Yokohama 13" tyre 205/60/13, soft compound for £72 +vat.

One for Annette and Robin.....
The treaded tyres we used on our BMW lasted 3/4 of the season Annette and we could have got a full season if we didn't ride it as hard....
The sidecar has done two seasons !
The treaded tyres are also HALF the price of slicks........

Best thing the CRMC have said/done for sidecars for a bit if they allow 350's n Post Classics in.....
Bludge and I did put that forward as one of our proposals in last years AGM
How many posts did I put up on this site and others last year saying get the sidecars out there and lets have a decent RACE.....
