Hi All,

Hopefully the bad weather will be behind us and we can have racing on the brain once again! We will have a semi-formal class meeting for the Rotax racers on Saturday March 12th at 12 noon to vote on some minor tasks:

1. The creation of a “Masters” category. My proposal is to run this class within the SR Max grid, unless total numbers merit a separate grid. Points will be scored separate and trophies awarded. Starting position on the grid would be by laptime within the SR Max class, for pea pick the classes would be mixed. The criteria will be: Age 32 and up at the time of the race day OR 195lbs bodyweight and up at the scales with racing gear on. Class weight would be 395 instead of the 364 for the “SR/international” weight. Tire regs would follow Rotax rules, but all OEM styles of airboxes and clutches would be allowed. Carb jet combinations would follow maxchallenge guidelines.
2. Creation of Spec rain tire rule: Mojo W2 only, must be run in correct rotation.
3. Spec oil: Motul or XPS (new rotax oil!)
4. Adoption of “new style” airbox only for Sr/international Max
5. We are looking for a sponsor for Masters trophies for each race day and for year end (roughly $750 for daily + year end)
6. If the Sr and Masters classes are split, can a competitor enter both classes?

If there are any other topics to be covered please contact me prior to the meeting.

Hi All,

In reaction to the amount of people that could not attend the March 12 meeting and the conflict with the International Auto Show, the Rotax Meeting will be held at Cardel theatre on Monday February 28 after the CKRC club meeting.

It is a general meeting to set club supplementary regulations for the SR Rotax Class and to set the guidelines for the creation of the new Masters category at the club level.

Thank you,

Joey Guyon
SR Rotax co-rep

Hi Everybody,

Thanks to everybody who attended the meeting last night!

Here are the conclusions of the meeting:
-The Mojo W2 rain tire has been adopted as the only spec rain tire for 2011.
-The Rotax XPS oil has been added to Motul as a secondary allowable premix oil
-The allowable airboxes for 2011 are Old style (square) or New style (curved). Airboxes must be used in stock configuration.
-The Rotax class has voted to propose the creation of a "Masters" to the executive and the club for a vote at the next meeting.

Proposal:
-Class to run within the Rotax class for the first season, unless large turn-out earns a split grid to be decided by the Clerk.
-Trophies to be given out at every race to top 3 finishers
-Class weight 395
-Age requirement of 32 years or older during 2011 calendar year
-Can be 16 and over during 2011 calendar year if driver crosses the scale with driving gear on at 195 lbs after the race
-Tire regs to follow SR Rotax

Regards,

Joey Guyon
