All material in this book is the copyright of Motorcycling Australia Ltd (MA) and may not be reproduced without prior written permission from the CEO INTRODUCTION 2016 MANUAL OF MOTORCYCLE SPORT INTRODUCTION TO THE 2016 EDITION Welcome to Motorcycling Australia’s 2016 Manual of Motorcycle Sport (MoMS), a publication designed to assist you in your riding or officiating throughout the upcoming calendar year. The Manual of Motorcycle Sport The MoMS is the motorcycle racing ‘Bible’ and the development and provision of the rules and information within this resource is one of the key functions of Motorcycling Australia. While the information is correct at the time of printing, things can change. For this reason we urge you to keep an eye on both our website (www.ma.org.au) and our dedicated Manual of Motorcycle Sport site; www.moms.org.au Our fully responsive moms.org.au website is optimised for use on all your devices for access to the MoMS anywhere, anytime. You also have the option to utilise the manual offline, with content available chapter by chapter as a PDF to download, save and print as required. As you review this years’ publication of MA’s General Competition Rules, you will notice quite a few changes. There has been streamlining between chapters, and the addition of an easy to use Appendix for both protective clothing and flags & signals. They can be found directly after Chapter 25 and makes a review of the requirements stress-free. This evolution of the MoMS, which will continue to develop into 2017 will make finding the right information much simpler. The structural changes may mean that a particular rule is not where it used to be but rest assured it will be there and the updated chapter content lists are now even better at directing you to where specific rules are located. As a resource for use at events and in all aspects of associated officiating duties, a limited run of printed hard copy manuals will be distributed to Level 3 and Level 4 Officials. Printed manuals will also be available to purchase, contact MA for more information. Contact details for the office and for individual staff members at Motorcycling Australia can be found in the MA Information section of the Manual. Similar to previous editions of the MoMS, new rules or changes for 2016 will appear in bold and rules that have been removed from the previous year will appear as strikethrough. Rules which have been deleted will appear in just one edition as crossed out before deletion and no longer have any current relevance to the GCRs. A Year in Review 2015 has been a truly remarkable year; both out on the track and here in the MA office. The Whole of Sport Review, carried over from 2014, shed much needed light on the circumstances of MA as the governing body of motorcycle sport in Australia, and culminated in the election of a new Board. The resulting changes have certainly injected some much need enthusiasm and fresh perspective into the organisation, which now has the motorcycling community eagerly anticipating the year ahead. Joining me on the Board of Directors are well known names within the industry including Australian Dirt Track Champion and Grand Prix motorcycle road racer Peter Goddard, Fox Sports’ Michael Strano and Leanne Knowles, formally the President of the Motorcycling Victoria Board. Our commitment to the sustainability and growth of motorcycle racing, and the support from the MA Council means that the long term benefits to MA members will be the huge boost in new opportunities, grass-root funding, strategic development and updated programs across all disciplines. Along these same lines, it is at our biannual coaching camps, aptly named the Elite Performance Academy, that MA once again sought to foster the talents of our brightest Junior racing stars. Held this year in sunny Queensland, coaches for the program were racing legends Wayne Maxwell and Steven Gall. From psychological assessment to physio and on-bike skill development, the young riders aged 13 to 16 were selected to participate from across Australia as they excelled in their chosen discipline. MA’s own National Championships were contested at numerous events through-out the year and highlighted a showcase of talent across all fields. Mike Jones held off tough competition to secure his first championship win in the ASBK Superbike Class and brothers Jason and Brett James were unstoppable on their F1 Sidecar taking out the Series title undefeated. 2 2016 MANUAL OF MOTORCYCLE SPORT INTRODUCTION The Supermoto Championship, on the picturesque Newcastle foreshore, received exceptional support from ladies in each of the S3, S5 Clubman and S10 Women’s Classes. Tayla Jones reclaimed her trophy from 2014 in winning the 2015 Women’s Championship, and also placed 2nd in the S3 class, while Georgia Murray impressed some 20,000 spectators with fantastic racing in all rounds, taking the S5 Clubman title plus a podium in the Women’s Class. In off-road racing Daniel Milner successfully defended his Championship status for the fourth time at the Australian Four Day Enduro in Tasmania. Daniel’s name is now written into A4DE record books as the second most successful rider in the event’s history (alongside Stefan Merriman), behind the six-time winner Shane Watts. Toby Price was the AORC outright winner again for 2015; which topped off an incredibly fruitful year for him with victories at both Finke and Hattah, and notably a podium finish in his debut Dakar Rally. MA wishes Toby all the best as he commits himself to a rally career with the Red Bull KTM Team for 2016 and beyond. Our presence on the FIM International racing circuit was incredibly strong this year, with teams and individuals representing Australia at the Trails des Nations, the International Six Day Enduro, Junior Motocross, Freestyle Motocross and the Speedway World Cup amongst others. The Women’s Trophy Team for the ISDE dominated every stage of the event in Slovakia; retaining their status as ISDE Champions for the third successive year. The Australian’s filled the podium from top to bottom, with Tayla Jones as winner of the Enduro Women’s Class, Jemma Wilson in 2nd and Jessica Gardiner taking out 3rd. This is also the third year that Jessica Gardiner has held a podium position for the EW Class and the teams’ efforts once again made an outstanding impression on competitors from all across the world. Contentions surrounding a number of disqualified riders in the Senior Trophy Team competition was finally resolved some weeks after the event and saw the Australian team earn their rightful place at the top of the podium, over 2nd placed Italy and Finland in 3rd. This belated announcement has resulted in a staggering three for three in 2015, with the Junior Trophy Team also taking out their opponents for an over-all win. Australia also hosted an amazing display of national and international talent here on home soil, the likes of which has firmly cemented our reputation as a leader in world-class motorcycling events. The FIM Speedway GP in its premier year at Etihad Stadium was a resounding success and we will see the finale round action return to Melbourne for the next 5 years. The annual display of extraordinary racing at the Phillip Island GP Circuit was once again in the form of the MotoGP and World Superbikes, and the track celebrated 25 years of hosting Round 1 of the FIM Superbike series. The Phillip Island Classic also returned in January for its 22nd consecutive year, and as Australian’s largest historic motorcycle race it had a full repertoire of International stars from New Zealand, United Kingdom and America. The growth and development of the Bayliss Classic in Taree resulted in fierce competition between some of the best Dirt Track riders in the world, and the event is expected to be bigger and better in 2016. Motorcycle sport involves a community of individuals that give their time generously behind the scenes and Motorcycling Australia would like to acknowledge all the hard work that goes on at every level of participation and competition. This includes clubs, coaches, volunteers, riders and their families, all of the officials and of course our State Controlling Bodies. With such support it easy to imagine that anything is possible and it is a truly exciting time to a part of the MA family. On behalf of the Board of Motorcycling Australia I wish you all the best in 2016 and hope to see you at the track.

    The Speedway Researcher Promoting Research into the History of Speedway and Dirt Track Racing Volume 12 No.3 December 2009 Edition No.47 Constructive Debate Those of you who follow the Old Time Speedway chat room web site will know an article we published some time ago has been the cause of some, let us say, passionate, debate and questions about the accuracy of some of our articles. In the light of this we would like to say that we set up to achieve the sub heading above but never set up to make any claims about the accuracy of the material we publish simply because we cannot check every item we receive and publish. We accept, in good faith, that the article represents the honest belief of the contributor. Equally, that should anyone consider there are factual inaccuracies in any article that they let us know their differing opinion and we will publish it provided it is not going to land us in court i.e. isn‟t offensive to or is a personal attack on anyone. We would like to move on from this episode positively and, as a magazine which is nearing the half century edition, would like to see it continue to hit the 100, have everyone pulling together in pursuit of a common chequered flag. Keith Cox an original Edinburgh Monarch Tony Webb’s coverage of the lesser known lads continues. Keith Cox had a long career in Australia from 1946-1958, he ranks as one of the few Australian legends who never reached his true potential in Britain.
