Speed Classes for 2010
At a recent meeting of representatives of the clubs running speed events in the North West, it was decided to formulate a common set of Speed Classes. This is to make it clearer for competitors who are often frustrated and annoyed by the inconsistency between different events and scrutineers.
Based on the provisions laid down by the MSA technical regulations for 2010, the “Northern Speed Classes” will assist competitors enter their car into the correct class, and will make much clearer what is allowed in the Road-Going Series classes, no matter which club is running a particular event.
Once the proposed classes are finally agreed by the various clubs and ratified by the MSA, it is hoped that the “Northern Speed Classes” will be published in September or October 2009 in time for competitors considering vehicle preparation or changes for the 2010 season. We recommend that all speed competitors consider these regulations carefully before purchasing or changing cars, and we hope that they will be adopted by a much wider range of organising clubs in due course.
well done an excellent idea, however a successful outcome does depend on consistent and proactive application of the regulations.
Any news on when the 2010 regs will be released?
Hopefully within the next couple of weeks they are with the MSA at the moment just waiting for a reply.
Can you put a brief of proposed New Road Going Production Regs?
I will as soon as I have had a reply from the MSA to say they are OK and we have not contravened any of the new regs.
Any response from the MSA yet regarding 2010 Regs?
Not a word!!!
I hope to be able to publish the class stucture early next week just waiting for Midland Speed to get back to me.
