Engine rules

Unread post by john holden »

With the risk of dragging up an old topic, I think there should be a unified Engine rule for the 600 sidecars.
The worlds / TT / British F1 / British F2 / club (and there is also talk of yet another Engine regulation in the pipe line) are all running to different specifications, why can't the people making the decisions sit round a table and agree on one set of regulations? Next year, it is proposed that the world championship will only be 600cc. To my mind, it would be good to have the engine spec' unified across our fabulous sport.
But that's only my view.

Hear, hear!! I don't understand why we have to go to 600 for the big bikes and I don't understand why the goal posts keep moving.

Having spent the money to go from tuned to standard and then back again to tuned for the TT if I have to do it again it'll be the end for me. I'm not made of money and unlike teams with enough backing to help I just could not find the funds to do it again.
Also all these calls for standard ecu's are without doubt the stupidest suggestions yet.

Re 600 engine regs. Get on with it . Its supposed to be the savior of sidecar racing isnt it. A lot of teams in the sport arent interested in 600cc.

Let me run it all. I would do this. British/Worlds..... Run what engines/bikes you like. You want tuning?? Go for it, if your pockets are deep enough. If they're not, run standard. TT........600s, tuned or not. Your choice. FSRA.......600's, tuned or not, your choice. End of problem. Simple enough eh!
