“ 2010 MX SERIES RULES AND ENTHUSIAST MEMBER
RULES”
1: MX series: There will be a 10 round series for 2010. The schedule will include 9 rounds with two scheduled motos per class, and one round with one moto being one hour in length. This totals 19 scheduled motos for the season. Weather permitting, all rounds will be completed. Rain dates have been scheduled where permitted.
Your best 15 motos count for the championship. The four remaining motos are considered throwaways.
In the event that not all rounds are completed, the number of motos counting for the championship will be adjusted.
The throwaways allow riders the opportunity to flag by their assigned dates and not miss out on a race.
2: RULES FOR ALL MEMBERS: This is a club that everyone belongs to. We
are not Promoters, We are an organized club that holds Motocross races for Club
members only. Keeping that in mind, here are the responsibilities of a Club
member.
Memberships - Memberships must be obtained 10 days prior to any race event to be allowed to race. Memberships must be filled out through the on line sign in procedure. Once that is completed, your workday picked and your payment and signed waivers are received, you will be issued a membership card that is valid til the end of the current year. Your membership is valid once your card is in your possession and a bike sticker is on your bike. You will not have club track access until you have a valid membership card. Suspension of your membership could result if you are found riding without a membership.
Workdays – Responsibilities for all Members
a. MX series Members: Each rider will be responsible for a designated work day at a competition event. Upon online registration the applicant will be required to select from the available workdays as provided by the SCR. You may have a representative flag for you (knowledge of racing and how to flag should be considered).
If a rider misses their workday, a rider’s season will be considered completed and not permitted to race the balance of the season. This situation will put the member in a “Not in Good Standing” position, and will not be permitted to reapply for 2011 membership consideration. It is the members responsibility to inquire about available workday opportunities prior to 2010 MX Series completion.
Parents are welcome to help out at any level. They may also be a substitute for their child, for an official workday. All Flaggers must be a minimum of 14 years old.
b. Enthusiast Members: ALL members must complete a workday during the season. This may consist of volunteering at any club event, competition or non-competition, or volunteering of time in some other form. If you have other suggestions or ideas please feel free to share them with us.
If a member misses their workday, the Members season will be considered completed and not permitted to utilize the SCR Club Property for the balance of the season. This situation will put the member in a “Not in Good Standing” position, and will not be permitted to reapply for 2011 membership consideration. It is the Members responsibility to inquire about available workday opportunities prior to 2010 season completion.
Note: Workdays includes ALL members. Family membership includes ALL
members listed on the membership and must complete a workday. Failure to
complete your workday

9: Numbers:
Please
ensure you have proper number plates and numbers for 2010. Club races may at
times combine different classes. It is necessary to assign race numbers so we do
not have duplications. Numbers allocated in 2009 will remain with the rider
for 2010. If you are a new member, please request a number when you join
this year. We will advise you from a Master List what numbers are available.
Black tape will not be allowed. If you do not put permanent number plates on
your bike, you will not be scored, as it is hard for lap scorers to make out
homemade numbers.
10: Scoring: 1st-
25pts, 2nd-23pts 3rd—22pts, 4th-21pts,
decreasing by 1 point respectively, down to 5pts for 20th position. 21st and
after will receive 1 point if they start the race. This will be per moto.
Total for the day will be both moto results added together.
11: Rule Infractions: a. If a rider leaves the track and does not re-enter
safely without advancement, a 5 places minimum deduction in the race will result. The Race Official has the last word! A rider is not allowed to
switch motorcycles during a moto. If that rider needs to use another motorcycle
for the next moto, he/she must get permission from the Official first.

12: The Officials and/or Board of Directors retain the right to determine the infraction of rules and the penalty to be invoked.
13: Open practice days:
Direction and layout of track is determined by
the First riders at the track on any given day. All riders after that point must
follow the riders already there to get orientated with the layout. Never ride in
the opposite direction or put in short cuts if someone else has set up the
track. Safety is the responsibility of all riders at the track, blind jumps
should only be used if you have someone acting as a flag person or the blind
jump should be rolled over with caution. If this becomes a problem then the
blind jumps will be removed for open practice days!
Do not ride alone always ride with a buddy.
14:
Track maintenance: If there is a piece of equipment working on the
track a rider must get permission from the operator first, and what area that
the rider will be allowed to practice on.
15: AGM:
Any proposed amendments to the current SCR Club Rules or Bylaws must be submitted in writing 60 days prior to the advertised date of the AGM. No consideration will be made for items presented after that time for the current year.
Please remember our racing is for “FUN”! All people working are
volunteers and we try to do our Best to make it Fun for all. We don’t have a lot
of Rules; please respect the ones we do have! If you have any questions on any
of the above items, come out to a Club meeting, or give one of us a call.
If you have any questions, please contact any member of the Board
of Directors.
