pre-season Information from The Track

[Joe Rosse]

Jim,

I’m sure you posted this before, but I can’t find the Rotax of the Rockies schedule either here or on your website. Could you repost the info, or the link to it?

[Jim Keesling]

Joe,
The Rotax of the Rockies is run during all of the Mile High Challenge races. You may also find the schedule under the RMAX Challenge web site.
It is also listed under the racing link Rotax of the Rockies on the Track website.

Thanks,
Jim

Thanks, Jim–I was looking at the 2010 racing schedule on your page and didn’t see it. So if it’s run as part of the Mile High Challenge, Rotaxians will have to choose between running in Rotax setup or TaG setup, right? We’d like to run against other Rotaxes, but I’m afraid that will turn into the low turnouts of last year.

So, Rotaxians, who’s planning to run the Rotax of the Rockies series?? (I’m curious about both Rotax Jr and Sr.)

[Jim Keesling]

Joe,
Yes, they will run with the TaG group, but will be running for their own points as Rotax. Could you explain to me what you think the difference is between Tag set-up and Rotax set-up. All Rotax engines within Tag must follow RMAX rules.
You must be a Rotax member, and will get scored for trophies as such.
Thanks,
Jim

I was thinking of tires, Jim. We didn’t run MoJos last year, but as I recall the D2s–good as they’ve become–are a bit slower than MG Yellows.

[Greg Welch]

When a D2 runs on a track with only D2 rubber, they are very similar in speed to the MG. However we have found that D2 tires don’t like MG rubber on the track and run slower than the yellow.

There has been a ton of interest and excitement about Rotax only racing, and we will have a couple entries in senior running the Mojo tire, including myself more than likely.

Jim,

What is the weight for Spec Shifter Master going to be? The Track rule book says 420 lbs, but halfway through last season, the weight was lowered to 410. The SKUSA rule book says 405 for S4. I don’t mind if we stick with heavier weights 🙂

Thanks,
Charles
