Open questions on this class (2)

Places where the rulebook contradicts itself, or where a figure could not be settled. Nothing in this list is decided, and it sits here rather than in a footnote because it is what you would want before spending money.

  • Whether Veterans riders must additionally hold a GP1 Superlicence is not stated.
  • The one-year experience requirement is stated in the Jet Raid/Offshore/Endurance article; whether it governs the circuit class is unclear.

What the rules say (68 parts)

18 permitted outright, 48 answered by our reading of the class rather than by a quoted rule, 50 the rules do not settle. Grouped by the answer, because an open class gives one answer to most questions and printing it once per part would say the same sentence forty times.

No rule, this is an open classOur reading, not a rule we can quote at you. This class carries no stock clause at all, so anything unlisted appears to be open. The rulebook does not say so in terms.
