Can a Classic 1 or 2 250 cc motorcycle race as a vintage sportsman 250? A. Yes, any year previous to 1975 and the specific 1975 models permitted can race. Q. How will you score a race if there are multiple riders racing for the same manufacturer? A Vintage sportsman points will be awarded in the order each bike finished each moto, however only mx bikes competing in the manufacturers cup will be scored for cup points. The highest placing rider for each team will be awarded the points. Only points for one rider per moto will represent the manufacturer for each specific event. If the same manufacturer bike wins 1st and second in a moto then only the first place points goes to that manufacturer and 3rd place points goes to the other manufacturer Example CZ wins two motos and comes in second place both times. Maico gets third place in both motos. Points will be given as follows CZ 20 + 20 = 40 Maico 16 + 16 =32 No second place points given. Each rider however is also competing in the sportsman 250 points battle and their points will go towards that total no matter what position they finish in.. Each series has a 6 race schedule ~ only best 5 races will count. In the event there is a tie then the highest point total for race 6 will be the tie-breaker In order to become part of a Team, riders must commit to at least 4 of the 6 races in the series. _______________________________________________ Basic Rules: Hand-on-Helmet starts Your Motorcycle must be a pre 1975 motorcycle except for those 1975 models permitted by AHRMA and the 1975 Honda Elsinore which CALVMX considers a vintage sportsman. If you are not sure your 1975 year bike qualifies please contact us by email. CALVMX may choose to include other 1975 models unless they pose a clear design and performance advantage over the 1974 and older models. All riders must wear gear of the same ERA. This gear is available from many sources. If doesn’t have to be original gear but it must look like original gear. If you are not sure where you can locate some please contact CALVMX for assistance Exclusions will be made for helmets, boots, chest protectors, goggles and gloves. Basically your jersey and pants should be of the ERA. Each manufacturer will have a team. The team may be made up of 1 or more members. The winning team will share the manufacturer’s cup throughout the year. For example if there are 2 team members each one will have the cup for 6 months and so on. At the end of the year the team with the most points will win the manufacturers cup and their names will be engraved in the cup and the year in which they won. No later year modifications except those permitted by AHRMA will be permitted on each motorcycle. Any team can request an inspection of any other team’s motorcycle at any time to confirm the legitimacy of the motorcycle. |
