Hello Competitors
The sporting regulations have been updated to accommodate the changes required to make improvements to licensing and on track conduct discussed as at the 2018 Race workshop.
Please let your fellow competitors know as we are all an important part of communication out these changes.
Updated sections to review include
Section 2 DRIVER Minimum Requirements and 3 COMPETITION LICENSING ( which replace Section 2 DRIVER COMPETITION LICENSING)
These updates were based on a general agreement of these needs at the race workshop
Easy access for future WCMA.ca Endurance Championship events
Alternate access for people who “missed” the school (and have a race car)
Clarity on Basic License requirements – Ice Racing / Time attack / other
Alternate methods for confirming competency
Overall the license section of the regs should be updated to have a more logical flow while making the other changes
Section 5.3 Sportsmanship (addition)
Updated to support on track conduct discussion
Section 5.4 Impairment (updated for cannabis)
Updated due to changes in federal law
Sections 11.3 Competitor conduct on the race track and 11.5 passing on the race track have been updated and section 11.4 Competitor conduct on the race track for vintage and Appendix b have been added
These updates were based on a general agreement of these needs at the race workshop
that more clarity is needed around incidents and who is at fault
Attached samples examples were well received.
Members agreed and disagree whether specific examples and if they align with current rules
Reinforcing that more clarity is needed
that racing room should be given even when not required
Some concern that current rules as written/enforced limit “being passed” drivers responsibility to much
The car being passed should also be more responsible for a safe pass
Best regards.
