| 2005 IKF Ruling on
Old Styles |
We
are all wondering what the new IKF ruling will do to the Old
Style Comer motors, well relax. According to
Jack Hoegerl of the IKF, and I quote "
A old style cylinder is one with a cast iron bore which is
not allowed in 2005.
At this time you can mix and match old
style parts on engines.
Remember, Kid Kart classes are available
as a non-competitive local option class."
So it appears that only the cast iron sleeved cylinders will be illegal
which most of us know was not the best cylinder for racing anyway.
Whether this was their original plan or if they gave
in to external pressure we may never know, either way I feel it does
little to "level the playing field" as was their reasoning
behind the ruling in the first place.
