LOL ben and I went thru alot of conversations trying to get it as even as possible. Im guessing the times with the weight limits should get some super close times! Its all on the honor system here. I went thru every combination and used my experience to make sure that things would all come down to tuning it for the most performance. These are general rules and will and can be changed at any time when different options pop up.. This is just some guidelines to get people into tuning and racing their bikes no matter if its stock or modified!
pm me or krypto if anything.
Aloha

........as the pix indicate, '85 Gyro S-50cc stock, '86 Elite 80(still in street trim), and a '74 XL 100 Honda eligible for motard conversion.....the Elite 80 has no title, so track-scoot material definitely.

Does 1/8th mile drag racing only show up in ur rules at all Ben?

Well i wasnt limiting it to just that, but since thats the only track we run on iguess thats all we got, if we have the chance to run 1/4 mile than yea in the future we could have just a top 10 for that distance no matter what engine you have

im just thinking most people would be glad just to run down a dragstrip with their mopeds and not have safty rules a mile high or many many hoops to jump thru just to find out how they compair to others

hope this helps
