Hi Folks,

I read through the rules but did not find what I am looking for.  I assume that you need to prove that you can run safely under a certain speed before you start to make some serious runs.  Can somone point me in the right direction of how this process takes place.

EDIT:  I found the required info.

For those that may be wondering about this refer to rule 1.M

The passes will be 120-130mph

145-155

170-180

etc.

How do vehicles without speedos handle the licensing process or is it mandatory that they have some sort of device to monitor their speed in order to stay within rule 1.M ?

You should be able to figure it out from your tach readings provided you know your gearing. The situation is the same where ever you go. The other alternative is a GPS.

What I do is go to gearing commander,  punch in the info and see where I need to be.  I.E. 5500 on 4th is 150 and so on.  Prior to that pass it tape that on the tach so I  see our on track
