Ah Huskygoat, your quest for knowledge is a long and arduous trail!

Only non riders are to set tracks. as a rider of Kamfari I am forbidden to see the track . If a rider has deemed to have prior knowledge he will excluded. is this the case at thumb pump? No. Several SA based riders and non riders have offered to help mark out the track with me, as they have done for the QRSA club rounds 6 times every year for the past 4 years. Everyone gets a sighting lap anyway, so I am comfortable with this situation.

I knew there was going to be a fee for late entry ..how much. $50

What is the penalty for cutting the Track? is it exclusion? Depends on the situation, but if the steward and Clerk of Course conclude that it was blatent cheating, exclusion is an option.

Second day do we start on corrected time? No, Lemans start per class as the first day. This is covered in the sup regs.

Are you allowed help in pits from pit crew? eg fueling and tyre changes? Yes.

Have you got transponders ? If not do you need a hand to get them .I think I have 50. No. Not interested in using transponders at this stage. We want to keep things simple to allow maximum prize money and the lowest entry fee possible.

Is there any rules for the amount of laps for a finish? Every entrant will receive a t shirt and race plaque.

Is there a lap requirement per rider for pony express? Both riders must at least begin one lap.

Did I read a Le mans start if so Have you diagram in the regs . Line up seeds or does the major sponsor get the first ten spots? Placement by peg draw for all riders. This is covered in the sup regs. This will all be explained in the riders briefing at the event.

Are you using a shot gun or a flag to start the race? Probably an air horn.

I do read this is MA event? Yes, all 47industries events are run under MA permits.

How are making sure a 450 is a 450? Trust, intelligence and people have the option to put the money up to protest an opponent, as in all MA events.

Have you stated DB level in the regs or are you referring to the handbook? MOMS, as with all MA events.

As you stated above 450cc no + 5% . Does open class mean My Arctic cat 1000 is ok ? No, 850cc max as per MOMS, as in all MA offroad events.

Are Paddle tyres ok ? Trust me, you wouldn't want to run them. It may be sand, but it is not all soft!

Where Does a 350 Banchee fit ? which Class? Open or 450? maybe a slightly worked one say 440cc? If it is under 450cc, you can run it in any class appart from 4x4 and 300c Juniors classes.

More answers for Husky.

Just another if this is a series what points are allocated to each round? We will be allocating points as per MOMS (GCR's for you oldies).

what if a round is cancelled due to rain? If it rains, everyone gets given a teaspoon of concrete and gets told to harden up, unless it is deemed dangerous. Lets just hope that does not happen. We wouldn't want LB to get his hair wet!

Is there a overall out right winner ? Yes, this is covered in the sup regs.

I was been serious Mick . You need to specify on how many laps is a finish as you probably have a long list of riders only riding in there home state. It is possible for a guys to get 3, 8th places but secure the overall win. get my drift.

In NT to be the club Champion is a great honor . this is calculated on points over many races. A rule we made for a rider to be considered for points for the overall win must complete 75% of the winners laps. get my drift. Just trying to avoid "this is a joke"

Its not clear on day2 start. You say Le manns start again . are you the same grid position as day1? do you pick out of the hat again? or is it reverse grid. Other than corrected time start the leaders are disadvantaged?
or do we line up in finishing day one and then do la manns?

Same start order as day 1, just like we did last year only Le Mans style this year. Sorry mate, I thought you meant outright winner of the round, but I see now that you mean for the series. If a rider does less than 75% of the laps of the winner, pretty good chance they will not place very high for that round anyway. The 75% thing is an MA rule for MX, which is I suppose where you got it from. Perhaps for the series totals we should run total accumulated times, therefore only riders who complete maximum laps in their class are eligable for series class reward, and must all be on the same number of laps to be eligable for series outright win. Gets complicated when you are not comparing apples for apples.
I think we need to put a little more thought into that one.

You choose as the promoter to make the start as you Want. But last year people gave you space for all the hard work and commitment . Just don't get your nickers in knot at riders brief when riders (pro) give it to you. Just hope I don't draw No 1 and ten pros run me over TWICE Hey Roycroft might draw No1 its all good Mick leave it as is 8)funny if he trips running to his quad speed bump

Not sure what you are trying to say there old mate, I am obviously not fluent in Darwinease, but I will take a stab at it and assume you are asking if there is a cc limit in the open womens class......yes there is. 850cc as per GCR's. Women with bikes 450cc and under are welcome to enter pro class instead if they like.
Hope that answers your question Husky.

thats right you read it here folks he's gunna rethink entering... fear can do many a thing to a scared little man, maybe your GLW can go solo instead... and for the diet, sounds like a plan But I prefer thin plain chips, and beer

Try plain crinkle cut potato chips, sprinkled with worcestorshire sauce....my favourite, I kid you not! They go great with beer, like everything else does.
