[QUOTE="AJ Waggoner, post: 28438, member: 16665"] James, Yes the D 17 tracks are required to check District cards. Sometimes on a busy day they don't do it as well as they should for sure. A rider residing in D17 MUST have a D 17 card. The rider classification is printed on the card. A rider from another District is required to show his "other" District card..IF that District requires one ( some don't) On the advancement...there is a list of advanced riders every year. The list is actually linked on my page..go to "rider advancement". It shows the last several years in all classes, but trust me we have records that date back much longer that we reference. Districts do send the advancement list to the AMA and to neighboring Districts. Overall I have not seen a "huge problem" this year with this James...just a few incidents and those riders were moved swiftly. "Some" where actually District mistakes..just sent out the wrong card..not the rider really trying to scam.This happens and shouldnt ..remember we are volunteers..not paid /hired workers ..lol There are of course a few riders still out there sort of on the fringe I'm sure. If you know of any send the names and it will be looked into and corrected if it applies. I have caught probablty 5 myself this year and Wardy has caught several more, but overall 10 or so isnt bad out of 2,400 riders in D17 and alot of out of state riders that are harder to keep tabs on? What percentage is that?? .004% ? LOL if its 3 times that figure in reality from the tracks not checking and a few mistakes its still not too awfully bad.. Not a perfect system by any means but the riders have AMA rules in place to protest anyone at anytime so they CAN self-regulate and help the system. Hope this clarifies somewhat. Reeko, I remeber not long ago here there was NO C class even ..and not even a 30 B class. It depends on location and number of riders. In this district even with an average of 28,000 entrees per season..there is no need of a displacement D class or of a +30 C class. Heck in the plus 30 there are just enough guys now to make a decent gate in A and B ..if you break it up further it just gets goofy. I can see in some states and District a real need for the bigger class structures..at least from what I hear. From personal racing experience I have never been anywhere that really NEEDED that..on a state level.Most SoCal races I've been to had 5 or 6 riders per class in the Vet A, B, C, or D classes ..seemed weird to separte them at all almost ?? On a particular "BIG" race level sure. So then how should they do it just for the "BIG " races? I dont have a good answer and agree I have seen a problem in that sense. <p align=right>06-05-2000 :Edited [/QUOTE]
