U.M.R.A-KING OF THE TQ MIDGETS

The board of directors have made there initial engine recommendations for the engine program to go into effect in 2017. Further test will be conducted and by May 30th all car owners will receive the complete package to be voted on. 650 cc engines are be tested to decide if weight will need to be changed. Voting procedure will be explained June 1st.
U.M.R.A. rules states 800lbs to be minimum weight for car and driver. Seat belts must be no older than 2 years old. These will be checked every year. Helmets require at least a snell 2005 rating. The new 2015 snell rating will be out later this year. Registration folders will be passed out at the track. Our first race is March 28th, at Brownstown Speedway. The fall nationals at Greensburg are the last weekend in September. Our schedule has a few modifications that will be addressed by March 28th. We are working on changing one date at Union County, but nothing has been finalized yet. Our July speed week events will be highlighted with the Dwenger Memorial at Greensburg.

Thanks

who makes a 650cc motor?

I believe the motors Combs run are 650cc and that's what Terry is referring to.

I believe the motors Combs run are 650cc or close to it,and that's what Terry is referring to, as far as builder. I think those motors came from North Carolina.

The newer Kawasaki is a 636 stock.

I am pretty sure that the 636 kaw is no longer in production, so to get that number the racer will be required to do an expensive re bore and chrome along with a set of pistons about $1200.00. That would be 2mm overbore and they just might make a 3mm over that would get you closer to 650cc.

Looks like a 3mm or 4mm overbore might be a tad big.

Terry, can you make a known list of all legal engines with UMRA / King?

I know at one time the UMRA rule book listen them. If they were pushrod, over head valve, etc.... the ruling listed how many cc's were allowed.

Thanks

I didn't see anything with the engine rules as they were, the newer 600's can hold their own against the Honda without trying to get them to the 700cc limit that was in the old rule book. If I'm reading this correctly my Suzuki will now be illegal? What a crock!
