Re: Round 3 Endurance Results

Exactly the scenario I had in mind.
Also there are many bikes with numbers that are difficult/impossible to interpret at speed for a variety of reasons. That's why the Rule Book covers the topic. As hawk-eyed as they may be, corner marshals cannot read transponder numbers.

Re: Round 3 Endurance Results

For safety reasons so corner marshals can identify a bike correctly there should not be two bikes on track with the same number. We oblige visiting riders that have a number already used by a VRRA member to add a digit or letter to distinguish them.

Re: Round 3 Endurance Results

How is it that there were two bikes on the track at the same time in the same race with the same number?

Re: Endurance Performance Index

As an endurance only racer, I do not agree with the new handicaps and I especially do not agree with the attempt to railroad them through without discussion or input from racers. Although they are not "rules" the endurance performance index should be locked in for a specified period and ch...

Re: Carburetor Cleaning: Ultrasonic vs. Vapour Blasting

Princess Auto catalogue doesn't show a photo, but I think this is the same as what I bought at an auto parts and equipment store years ago. The PA online catalogue is a PITA but this is the item, I believe: SKU8140709 - "18oz Hopper Gravity Feed Abrasive Spot Blaster". Using dry baking sod...

Re: Bike substitution

Is it safe to assume that the substitution can only be made in the pits if the bike to be replaced makes it back to the pits, either under its own power or being pushed by the rider alone?

I’m not sure if we can change the rule of 1 hr plus 2 laps but I will confirm.

For me, I would expand my team so more of my friends get to ride my bike.

Amend the rule to read: "No rider stint may exceed 1 hour plus 2 laps with minimum 1/2 hour between stints."

Re: Potential new school date on Pro

I had not registered for the original date, but I would like to register for the new one. Gotta get back on the horse after finishing the 2020 track season, such as it was, with a big asphalt kiss. Hopefully one of our super instructors can point out WTF I'm doing wrong. :)

Re: Endurance points system discussion

The points system would not eliminate the possibility of a tie. Even in this same scenario. Having an even number of rounds will mean it’s always possible. Team A 2 wins 2 second places Team B 2 wins 2 second places Provided they finish on the same number of laps at each round means a tie. In that ...
