Ok Motorcycle Racers…We will be adapting the SCTA streamlined seat/tail section rule in Special Construction. As always, we will reserve the right to limit speed due to wind conditions.

The new class will be for twin cylinder overhead cam motorcycles. The designation will be OCT. You will be able to complete in all frame classes with this engine. We expect a lot of older café racer style bikes getting dusted off and coming out to race with us. Now there is a class for Victory's, Ducks and Vrods and a lot of other Overhead Cam Twins.
