Willie,

They assign the "B" so that everyone knows it was a bike, streamliner, sidecar etc... :cheers:

The ECTA numbers 1-10 only apply at the ECTA track (and possibly the LTA track since I don't think they run points but you'd have to ask the LTA folks on that). Any ECTA racer that has earned, by way of year end points standings, the right to run the 1-10 number had to do so with an assigned official number recognized by all the organizations and tracked by Chuck/SCTA.

My assumption is that the ECTA folks should not be attempting to use their track earned 1-10 numbers elsewhere & should revert back to their original "SCTA" number. I'm not sure if that is actually written anywhere but I would think if one attempted to run a 1-10 ECTA number at an SCTA event that they would be notified that they don't "own" that number there & would by default revert back to their "owned" number.

By the same token I don't believe the ECTA would allow an SCTA racer to use the 1-10 number at the ECTA track & would require them to use their assigned SCTA number. SCTA doesn't recognize ECTA points & vice versa.

Willie,
Thanks for asking for clarification about my using #7-B on my bike at ECTA last meet to make sure I wouldn't have problems if I tried to run it elsewhere.  As Deb said I only get to use it at Maxton and on all my paperwork I still include my official LSR #9688 in parentheses to avoid confusion later.  I have only been doing LSR for 3 years and I was thrilled to earn 7th in the points last year with this bike that I constructed.  So I rewarded myself with putting the number on the bike for this year.  My main goal has been earning records and now increasing the speeds of those records.  But the points chase does put a twist on the timing of the attempts since there are no longer any open records for an Altered 250-4 stroke bike.
Boy this LSR total package thing (designing, building, tuning, and running it) is even more fun than the previous bike competition thing I did- AMA Desert Racing my Honda SL100 in California in 1972-77.  Oops, my gray hair is showing.

"...run there under ECTA rulings..."

"Thats not what that quote says.

Bill"

When I read this I thought that the ECTA rulebook was now in effect at the Mojave Mile. And while at it why not use the ECTA record database, both events are the same length.

If that is not what you wrote Bill I apologize for my mis-understanding.

No need to apologize.

I just ment if he wants an idea of what be would run in the mile, under LSR rules, just set the bike up for Maxton rules and run it at Mojave.  For his  information only .  Guys do it at Miami and TX, no record to be had, but good practice.

Anyway, I would guess the Maxton records could only be used as a national base but not track base.  Maybe in the future...
