2011 Australian Minimoto Title Entry Forms

[Barnesd09]

Reading the rules in plain and reasonable language from my view would mean that it must be made in china and Taiwan is not part of china.
However the general option of a reasonable person is that it is still "Chinese" made, although made in Taiwan.

But it is up tot he official scrutineer and course clerk to made the distinction and have the final say.

The point is that rule makers come up with crud reasons/excuses to lower the performance level of 4 strokes ... just like how the Yanks try to block out CRF150R's in the 85 class ...

It's a load of **** pull ...

Looking at the rules in the previous post ... they're fair ...

Sorry Dave, being around lawyers all day and studying law subjects sometimes it comes out that way, as it seems the most logical words to say that are to the point.:confused-smiley-014

Hi Guys,
I have sent off the question to the Motard guys who have written the rules and I hope to get a response before the weekend.

To the question about can a China bike run up to another class that is higher, the answer is YES.
E.G. Bikes entered into 5A can also run in 5B to get extra track time, YES.

 

[grnman]

good stuff, well that only leaves the TB V2 question left.

 

[ringo]

You could say that something is Tasmanian designed and made ... but at the end of the day it's still Aussie ...

UMMM, not sure about this. LOL!!!!!!

 

[Barnesd09]

UMMM, not sure about this. LOL!!!!!!

Well tassie products should be better engineered, afterall they have two heads per person to think with. :alc:
Or are my cousins an exception......

I have received the okay for the Tawainese made TB V2, they will be allowed.
If a part is made in China or Tawain they will be allowed as the quality is very simular.

you have been very miss informed then.. tawainese parts are usally far superior

you get a chinese scooter & race it against a tawainese one
