It was that way in the bike program prior to the rise of Dail Martim.
The people responsible for tech on bikes felt it was their responsibility to the entrant to have the same understanding of all the features of the vehicle.
Ask a record holder from prior to the current administration and see what they have to say.

JackD - In regards to your "Duke" question about being tough. I think it goes like this... " life is tough but it is tougher when your stupid"

This whole thing does not have to be so tough.
 Make it easier to understand, don't fix it if it ain't broke, and the speed/credibility will reward the participant with plenty of fun. :wink:

I'll ask this question again.  If they are illegal why are they being allowed to run?  Is it ignorance on the part of the SCTA?  Is it the "good buddy" system?  What?
Get off the stove Grandad.  You're too old to be riding the range.

I dont know for sure, But if someone doesn't protest them officially then maybe they wont do anything.... But pictures on their official website show them running illegal should be enough visiual evidence to do something.  I will do some emailing on the subject and find out with the Motorcycle guys.

You have voted in the best way you can and I hope more in the future if we are to have one.
I hope your interest won't go unrewarded.
