The Place

Keith, do I have to run any oil containment if I run my . . . “le special engine avec no oil” . . ???

Just make sure your classic has oil containment if you want to run it at the Pre TT!

Yeah right Jo !!!! I’ll put the oil containment under the engine as per the rules even though there is knack-all oil in there ! I’ll not bother putting any under the dry sump oil tank which is where the oil actually is !!!

I guess the oil tank isn't so likely to have a con rod come out through it and leave a big hole?

Wally, stop causing trouble, or Jo will give you a slap.

Ooooooo !!! go for it

Agreed Steve, conrod not likely to come out of the oil tank, but conversely with a dry sump system, 4 litres of oil not likely to come out of the engine . . . . . . just sayin' !

I don't make the rules!!!! But I WILL enforce them, because I can!

(to both the above )

It's all a power trip Steve, I don't even know what oil is let alone how to contain it really. But the chance to tell a load of men off, well, who could resist??

Ooooo ! You’re lovely when you get tough !

Implying therefore that I'm not lovely the rest of time? You are expecting your bike to get an extra coat of looking at come May, aren't you?

Ah !!!! Yes John I believe all the rules apply !

Might have to split this soon, as we are now quite a long way off the original topic of "tuned engines in club FII".
