Slicing Through the Track

TVS RACING ARE THE FIRST OF the Indian manufacturers to field a onemake championship on a global scale after successfully completing the first TVS Asia One Make Championship. In addition to this accomplishment, TVS Racing's racetuned OMC RR 310, which is based on the street-legal Apache RR 310, also set the record for the fastest Indian bike on a race track by reaching a top speed of 211.2 km/h. The bike reached this speed in the race having undergone major engine changes that allowed it to boost its top speed by nine km/h.

The TVS Apache RR 310 ARRC OMC is a racing motorcycle developed by TVS Motor Company in collaboration with OMC Racing. It is a variant of the TVS Apache RR 310, a sports bike designed for road use. The ARRC OMC version of the bike has been specifically designed and built for use in the Asia Road Racing Championship (ARRC), a competitive series featuring some of the best motorcycle racers in Asia. The bike features a range of performance enhancements and racing-specific components, such as a more powerful engine, advanced suspension and braking systems, and aerodynamic bodywork, which enable it to compete at the highest level of racing in the ARRC.

Given that TVS already field a highly developed version of the RR 310 in the pro-stock 300-400-cc championship in India, it was a logical place to start. However, that division does have some rather onerous rules. Making a bike as light as possible is one of the first things one should do to make it as quick as possible. Thin carbon-fiber body panels and even the complete rear subframe are used in the RR 310. TVS even employed carbon-fiber wheels before resorting to forged aluminum ones to address some chatter difficulties; they want to reintroduce carbon-fiber wheels next season with revisions. Billet aluminum components, such as the adjustable rear-set pegs, also contribute to the problem.
