2009 SCTA Rule Book

[fredvance]

Yep I got my tube today, but no rule book in it.

[RichFox]

Me to. The books are coming soon I am told

Yep I got my tube today, but no rule book in it.

Same here. I thought it was odd to get the tube before a rule book. Also seems odd that a member in Alaska got a book before Nor-Cal

Bob Clancy is out riding his trials bike (or something), and I'm not good at putting notices on the front page of the site -- but here's something I was asked to put up.  It concerns helmets for both cars and motorcycle streamliners.



"Racers please note the following correction to the 2009 SCTA Rulebook:

Section 3-A2, page 23, last sentence SHOULD READ:

Snell Foundation 2005 (or later) Certification will be required on all helmets beginning January 1, 2011.  Also - from that date on all enclosed-cockpit vehicles - car and motorcycle streamliners - will require SA-rated helmets."

This clarifications comes to us from Roy Creel via Dan Warner. 

Please note (my addition here) that the Snell Foundation sticker is placed deep inside the helmet, under the lining -- usually on the padding that lines the outer shell.  A Snell mention or sticker on the OUTSIDE of the helmet is not verification -- the inspectors need to see it, in the form that Snell uses, on the INSIDE of the helmet.

I went from one book to four books and will have more soon...

One for the truck, one for the trailer, one for the office, one for the "other office" etc...

1 or 2 to loan out and never see again..

[sabat]

I don't have my book or tube yet (Kansas) but does this mean we can still use our M helmet in the car until that time?  I looked at the scta site and didn't see any info.

3.A.2 Driver’s Helmet:
All drivers/riders shall wear a full-face helmet with face shield. A Snell Foundation tag reading SA2000 or M2000 or later is required. No
open face helmets will be allowed. Helmets will be visually inspected at least once each year. Helmets shall be undamaged and in
serviceable condition. Eyeglasses worn under the helmet shall be shatterproof. Snell Foundation 2005 certification will be
required on all helmets beginning in Jan. 1, 2011. Manufacture date not to exceed 5 years. Snell Foundation 2005 (or later) Certification will be required on all helmets beginning January 1, 2011.  Also - from that date on all enclosed-cockpit vehicles - car and motorcycle streamliners - will require SA-rated helmets."

Seems repetitive... When you replace the last sentence... was the book just like the website?  That was the part that seemed a little off...

Here is what 2009 Rule Book says:

Snell Foundation 2005 certification will be required on all helmets beginning in Jan. 1, 2011. Manufacture date not to exceed 5 years. Snell Foundation 2005 (or later) Certification will be required on all helmets beginning January 1, 2011.  All enclosed-cockpit vehicles - car and motorcycle streamliners - will require SA-rated helmets."

This is what it should say from what I understand:

Snell Foundation 2005 certification will be required on all helmets beginning in Jan. 1, 2011. Manufacture date not to exceed 5 years. Snell Foundation 2005 (or later) Certification will be required on all helmets beginning January 1, 2011.  Also - from that date on all enclosed-cockpit vehicles - car and motorcycle streamliners - will require SA-rated helmets."

For what it's worth (from the guy from Alaska) the 4 books I got, I special ordered, neither my, nor my father's books have shown up that supposedly come with the membership re-up.

I too got one for each 'room' and a spare or two to 'loan out'. Or I will have when the other two show up.

[Stan Back]

I understand that the Rule Books are being sent separately, as when they were put in the tube they kicked the postage prohibitively high.

I finally got mine in yesterdays mail.
