Is setback and jacks allowed in OCR?

Alan, I'll do all the research mate and build it spot on
dont know if setback or jacks are allowed, but it wont need em anyway, i know the max Hull speed for it so i,ll base it somewhere in that region
Cheers
Allan

A few questions Answered
1 ) No you dont need your own Insurance as any Compulsory Insurance is covered by your License either Full or Day
2) A 14' Sequel provided it has a standard 4 Seat style Cockpit (no Race Decks) is fine with up to 70hp National (Possibly more as Basic) although for National would need to be Homologated !!
3) XR2's were Binned as there is no Standard Production 2 Ltr Engine available for Sale & OCR is a Standard Production Class
& 1.8 Ltr is only 4 mph (average) slower than 2 Ltr was
4) You may be able to run a 2.5Ltr in Formula 200 (Contact Adam Younger)
Any further info please ask specific questions!!

A few more answers
5) No Setbacks or Jacks are allowed.
6) Min Weight 'A' Class 575kg' 'B' Class 400kg 'C' Class TBA (i suspect somewhere around 300kg) Excluding Crew.
7) It looks as though we may this season allow a specific Exhaust Mod to make them Sound Better.!!

going back to the original thread,the proposed additional class is production class with 200hp with the smallest boat being a 18 ft phantom. as for full blown 2.5 it is a insurance problem.if you are racing in sheltered waters it is probably ok. but we race in the sea and that is never sheltered.so the risk is,an overpowered boat in unfamiliar waters.if this series is to get off the floor the opinion is to walk before we can run.our insurance is high enough as it is. this series ,200hp production,will be available this year as soon as the rya sort out the final detailes.

More Answers
10) Weight is all up at the end of a Race inc residual fuel !! 300 kg is just a guess as some practical weighing will be required !!
11)Prop choice is free
12) Boat can be stripped to a bare minimum for National Class with 2 seats side by side , or if Tandem will need an audio / visual warning device attached to co-driver.

In the early 80's the top OCR Class was 115 hp & predominantly 14 - 16' Boats ('E' Class) in 88 ish 1.8 ltr became 'A' Class & Class structure was reversed . in 91 'A' Class became 2 Ltr & 1.8 was changed to 'B' Class 1.3 Ltr 'C' Class & 1.0 Ltr 'D' Class.
with the demise of the XR2 as a Standard Prod Motor it was decided to revert to the late 80's type Class Structure .
