Rules and Regulations for Sidecar and Solo Motorcycles

I. Philosophy and Objectives the USCRA Rules and Regulations ("RR") are intended to promote the following objectives:
  1. The preservation and racing use of historic racing motorcycles, and racing motorcycles built after the classic period that are consistent in design and construction with racing motorcycles actually built in the applicable periods.
  2. Foster close and competitive racing in a spirit of sportsmanship and camaraderie.
  3. Accessibility of classic motorcycle racing to interested enthusiasts.
  4. Most importantly, to have fun.
All specific rules and regulations set forth in the RR are to be read and enforced in the context of the above objectives. To that end, any and all provisions of the RR may be amended or changed by the USCRA upon reasonable notice, as required to maintain the intent and reality of the objectives in the sole and exclusive discretion of the USCRA. The agreement to this provision by all competitors, entrants and owners shall be confirmed by their participation where these rules govern the event. Member suggestions for rule changes must be given to a member of the rule committee in writing by the end of September to be considered for the following year.

The belly pan should be affixed to the chassis at a minimum of three points. In addition, the belly pan must contain an absorbent material created for the sole purpose of containing oil. McMaster-Carr Industrial Supplies features affordable absorbent materials on page 1881 of it's catalog (www.mcmaster.com).
