How many classes are there? Where is the list etc. There seems to be such a wide range of different stuff how do you know what it falls under. How does a new guy start up etc? Im sure you have to prove yourself etc. I have a 72 r5 yamaha 2 stroke that id love to run but im not sure on any class it would qualify for.

Loring ran ECTA rules.
Get a copy of the ECTA rulebook. study it, and you will be able to find the answers to a lot of your questions.
Be forewarned - interest can lead to addiction.........but it is a fun addiction!

there is a class for the bike ... I guess that it would probably fall into M/G350/2 ... incidentally, the rule book shows the record at 133 for Maxton ... Probably open record at Loring ... Joe

You can also run TO time only for a 1st time out if you like. No class or records, but you see where you stand.

I am not a m/c guy, I do beleive there is a rotary m/c class though. Best bet is to get a rules and record book and read it over and over again and again and again... Any body out there get any vidio of my blue '67 Brick (Chevelle) @ LORING? Scott Griswold Newark, DE |

I believe the Time Only (T/O) category is for cars only. I could not find anything in the rule book like that under the motorcycle categories ...  |

72tx340-- the only folks you have prove yourself to are the tech inspectors and they are there to help. There's a good chance that you have never met a group of people friendlier, more willing to help each other or more fun to be around.
