Let's qualify the BOTT statement a bit for us. Middleweight Twins is still a class, and while Heavyweight Twins never made a class, they are combined and run at the same time in a large class called BOTT. It's still the same structure as last year for twins, only points for the overall results to towards the WCC championship. I also can't think of a better series to run my RC51 in, if I wouldn't lose points in middleweight twins by not racing the SV. I wish I could clone myself and just run both bikes :devil:
***Additional Information*** Calgary has omitted their Heavyweight Supersport class from the grid. Instead the CMRA has 2 Superbike races per day. That means that the 1st Superbike race of the day will count towards the WCC OPEN SUPERSPORT CLASS. The second superbike race of the day will count towards the WCC SUPERBIKE. The rules for both of these races will follow the CMRA superbike rulebook. Link is located in the first post.
I am looking to pre-register for next round (the wcc). Is there anything different about registration because of the WCC? Neil
