Thanks , I will take each one of your issues and explain.
In the case of the V8 busa , it does not matter what kind of bellhousing, transmission, ect,
it uses. The issue is the engine. In this case the engine is comprised of major parts and
components designed primarily for use in motorcycle engines. The cylinders, pistons,rods,
heads, cams, ect, ect. (7 j 5 - 7 j 6).
7 g 9 - correct, any engine is permitted.
7 h 18- correct, any motorcycle engine is permitted.
7 j 5 - correct, as I explained above.
7 j 6 - same as above.
7 j 9- does not apply, this is not a pushrod engine.
7 j 10- does not apply, vintage?
7 j 12- correct, any auto cycle or (conrod) engine is legal.
7 j 13- does not apply, this is for electric, thermodynamic, air car, ect.
As for the rule change request you asked about, I reviewed all of my records from last year.
It was sent, by email to Motorcycle Racer Advisory Board, and the Motorcycle Rules Committee, for review. Then to the SCTA Rules Committee for vote. It was.........
Issue: In the motorcycle special construction class, it is time we let any internal combustion
2 stroke or 4 stroke otto cycle motor run. We need to take out the word " motorcycle "in the
engine section.
The vote was to DENY the rule requests change.
I hope this clears up your questions.
