BRACKET RACING – WHAT IS IT?

{}

What is Bracket Racing?

Ever thought about moving up from track days and going racing with your mates?
It doesn’t matter if you are a novice, or an advanced rider, Bracket Racing is open to all eligible bikes and racers. Bracket racing is a form of racing where competitors are grouped into brackets according to their lap times, and not by the class of bike they are riding. This form of racing provides a very enjoyable and low cost form of racing.

What do I need to do to prepare my bike?
Your bike will need to conform with the requirements of road racing as per the GCR’s, such as lock wiring, removal of stands and glass etc. TMCC members will be able to help you with your bike preparation if you are unsure how to do it. There is a handy prep guide on the TMCC Website for those new to racing.

Machines entered for the first time are allowed the following concessions:

Headlights and taillights, if not removed, must be taped over.

Side stands, if not removed, must be zip tied in the up position.

Fully enclosed belly pans are not required.

Fluid caps are not required to be lock wired.

Engine crash covers are not required.

What do I need for protective clothing?
You will need full leathers, 1 or 2 piece that zips together, as well as the usual requirements of back protector, gloves, boots and helmet that comply with the GCR’s. 

How do I enter the Race meeting?

To enter you will need to be a member of the TMCC or SRCT and hold an MA Race licence or purchase a One Event Competition licence.

You will need a Ridernet profile to join a club, enter the meeting and get a licence.

What are you waiting for? Grab your mates and get racing!
