The Mighty Superlites and Motolites

 
 

                           TMCC SUPERLITE / MOTOLITES 2010.

The Superlite class has been a valued class of  TMCC Road Racing since it’s inception in 1998. It offers a superb entry level class to the world of road racing, low cost and the availability of competitive machinery make the mighty Superlite a great first choice ( for some , the ONLY choice ! ). These machine are very robust, rarely suffer expensive crash damage and once set up require minimal maintenance. Chassis limitations reduce any advantage that may other wise be gained by horsepower increases, so the emphasis is on a smooth riding style, with a machine that behaves itself most of the time.
 
Rules for both of these classes are taken from the BRA - ( New South Wales Bucket Racing Association ) and will be updated from time to time in an effort to maintain a national machinery standard .
 

                          TMCC SUPERLITE RULES 2010.

      1. Homologation: Requests can be submitted to the Road race committee for consideration.
