600 Superstock Some of the juniors come to the MRRDA at 15 and hence go straight into the seniors after year 1. We have seen some want to go straight into the 600 class, which although we wouldnt encourage this, we feel we need to make sure that we can accomodate these riders and provide the development program in this class. In the MRRDA we are limiting this class to riders between the ages of 16 and 21. They can be either D,C or B grades. We shall be running under the 600 Superstock rules as defined in the MA GCR's. Due to a number of requests, we have now added the Yamaha FZ6 into the mix here. They MUST comply with the MA Manualof Motorsport rules for the Yamaha FZ6 class. Please note that means NO power Commanders. The rules are listed under the Australian Superstock rules listed below. There will be one set of trophies provided for the combined Superstock and FZ6 races for the weekend. However if there are more than 9 bikes on average for Superstock 600 and 9 for FZ6, we will provide separate end of year trohpies. Otherwise there will be one send of year trophies as well.
