Surely the sensible option regarding grids is to introduce a quorate (minimum) figures for a grid to be allowed to run on its own, say 6. Above this it gets it’s own grid, below it’s either combined with other inquorate classes or starts at the back of the most appropriate grid.

Really over time the cadet landscape should settle down into two classes, Iame 2 stroke and Honda 4 stroke. Obviously this coming year is a bit more awkward (a problem created by the msa and it’s late decision about the Iame) so it will be a muddle for those still racing comer and wtp. Sorry if it offends anyone but those two are now legacy classes and will need to be fazed out of MSA racing, yes they should still be welcomed to race for a year but after that it probably means that anyone wanting to continue racing them will need to race non-msa.

I know the above sounds a bit harsh and will offend those who have a lot invested in comer or wtp gear but cadet, which is the sports entry class for most people needs to provide clear options for those entering. It should be a straight decision for those considering entry, do I go 2-stroke or 4-stroke, so a max of 2 grids at MSA meetings.

Obviously looking into the future the MSA needs to learn from this debacle and stick to it’s own timetable when announcing new engines, basically a full years notice should be given for the introduction of something as major as a new engine, with a further year where the outgoing engine is still eligible for MSA racing, basically giving everyone involved 2 years notice of any kit potentially becoming obsolete or at least no longer eligible for MSA racing.
