NEW BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Click here to view the new Board of Directors, elected on December 3rd, 2008.

#2 DNF RULE

For safety reasons, the AEIRA board of directors have amended the #2 DNF rule for bonus points to finishers, as it is full of loopholes! This new rule will not be applied to the updated rule book for the following reasons:

1. A team may voluntary claim having a false break down, just to salvage more points by finishing the race.

 
2. This rule will allow the same team to get away from the initial DNF rules about receiving points only if they have completed 50% of the winners laps, since they will be finishing (any teams that finish are entitled to received points, regardless the amount of laps completed).

 
3. There is no way a ref can verify the claimed break down (we as refs will not take a potentially damage machine on the track, just to verify if it is cripple).

 
4. Mainly, and it is a safety issue, we may end up with one or many teams that will take until the end of the race to complete the initial lap that the break down occurred, so they can then push their machine across the finish line on the final lap. That would mean they would received their bonus points, on top their respectable points, making the 50% rule ineffective.

 
5. If 4 teams were to push their machines on the track, 4 refs would have to follow them with yellow flags, leaving only 1 or 2 refs to pay attention to the finish line, and other issues in the race (we just don't have that many refs).

 
6. It is unfair for the quad guys that are racing in the metal class, as it is lot harder to push a quad then a bike.

At AEIRA, your safety is our first concern!!!

Sorry for any inconveniences.

Sincerely,

AEIRA board of directors

RULE CHANGE

The following rule change was adopted at the AGM to reward a team after fixing and finishing the race on a cripple machine.

1. New at the 24 hrs only - teams that make the decision to make a "bike swap " will be penalized 2 HRS (instead of 1 hr) after the dead machine has been pushed/pulled back to the pits and the referee has performed an inspection.

QUAD CLASS CHANGE PASSED AT AGM!

New Class to be Quad Pro: Top seven teams from previous year and any top performers that did not race entire series.

Quad : 8th place team and down, rookie teams, iron man teams.

Note: Any team may approach the board members to be moved from one class or another at the beginning of the season and any team is subject to being moved up by the board during the season if required. If a team is moved between classes all points are lost.

PRACTICE TRACK

A practice track will be plowed by the Leduc Motorsports Club as soon as it's safe to go on the ice, and will be available to all members.
