The Place

I am looking for a passenger for the 2024 CRMC season.

MRE chassis with Moorespeed BMW engine.

This is a very competitive setup and I’m after someone who takes their racing seriously.


Thanks

Correct.

You will struggle with 10" wheels, 32/11 or 33/11 I would think.

Most bm's are either 16" or 13" for this reason.

A nova gear box would help but there not cheap.

It was never 43" that was what the ACU specified in the past for F2's. The CRMC firmed up some old rules along with bringing in some new rules in 2013 including outfit dimensions. The aim was to keep the new modern chassis's relatively close to period outfits but also make sure they didn't excl...

So that puts an even bigger gap between modern classics and modern f2s.

Is there really no regulations for dimensions on modern outfits now?

It's all a bit off topic and perfectly within the rules so we'll leave it there.

back again, especially after the last few posts where the Beemers are mentioned... Who will give the proof that there were pre-1973, 1000cc BMW's(or even more, because I hear the rumours that the fastest Beemers around are 1200/1300cc) being raced...?! I will give you the answer: no one, because th...

Hello Michel, i don't know answer to that, Howard Langham will tell you because he had that problem. Hello Jason, Tony didn't ask the question what engine one in the CRMC his question was did a .... win last year. An sorry my understanding of Kevin's bike must have been incorrect. Ed bought our old...

Colin Chapman went bust a while ago. Also this is a sidecar racing forum. :offtopic: Weslake? Yes, Alister Lewis. Other engines Yes, Moto Guzzi and Norton. Why would a 750 BMW finish in front of a 1000 BMW in the same race, although John Perkins finished second on his 16" 750. Kevin Hunt wins ...

Now then Tony The surface area of the material in a sheet steel chassis is greater than a tubular chassis and the wall thickness is near enough the same depending on the chassis builders design/idea so this would make the sheet steel one heavier. The sheet steel construction from the head would not...

Hello Jason, what makes you think everyone will want to have a chassis like the one dieter built? There is a lot more material put into it compared to a tubular chassis so they will be much heavier. From all the pictures, videos etc i have seen from before 1972 all the outfits on the gird look comp...

Keiren,I think you will find a sheet steel chassis is lighter than a tube chassis,and also probably stiffer. That is why Colin Chapman(LOTUS)designed the Lotus 25 as a sheet steel chassis,and the customer 24 in tube frame in the same year. I suspect the rule on tubular chassis construction was made...
