[QUOTE="AJ Waggoner, post: 100580, member: 16665"] Timr- 1.Most established Districts will recognize dual District events ..IF the club or promoter is located near the District Border. Example: Red Bud Track and Trail - It only makes sense for him to sanction his races for both D14 and D15 as he will be pulling riders from both Districts by his location near the border. The riders are scored the same as always. The only difference is race reports go to each District.Then the finishing points are awarded according to actual finish..They are not seperated out if you follow me? ( Many riders including myself will sign up for both District cards to try and earn awards from both at the years end.So it benefits the promotor and the Districts) 2.The most noticeble benefit of a District is a year end awards program for District Champions. D-17 pays out about $15,000K worth of awards at the year end awards banquet between all the diciplines of the sport.This keeps riders interested in participating through a long year and better turn outs at the events for the promotors. Obviously this is more of a benefit if there ARE several promotors and clubs ( in D17 there are 44) .Many of the un-recognized regions there are not competeing promotors and the single organization already holds year end awards banquets etc.So it really depends on the region and how much rider participation already exists between several promotors. Other benefits is as you mentioned a District newspaper which keeps dealerships and other sponsors involved. D17's paper is Cycle USA. [url]http://www.cycleusa.com[/url] Average yearly participation in D17 is 26,000 entrees. So I think the scale of participation in a region also warrants wether it has a recognized overall Regional or District Organization. As its a fairly big job to track that many entrees for registration and year end awards etc? [url]http://d17.dirtrider.net[/url] The other main benefit is [b]cohesion of purpose[/b] amoungst many differing diciplines and promotors/clubs in an area? A district is normally set up in a Club Council style. And has a Board of Directors to guide things - but the Clubs and promotors themselves vote yearly for the board members and also the competition rules as well as the general guidelines that every club or promotor in the District follows.Including the Club Council. So you get a large group of promotors/Clubs voting and establishing the direction thier business and the sport of motorcycling is going in thier region. Instead of many going all in different directions or to thier individual intents. [/QUOTE]
