July 2019 CRA New Racer School

Posted: July 16, 2019 by New Riders School in Announcements, Racers

The July new rider school will start at 7am Friday July 19th in the classroom near the 4 way stop between the two paved paddock areas. If you already attended the class in March please report to the classroom at 8:30 am. Of course, if you would like a review of the March classroom you are welcome to come earlier.

We suggest getting to the track early enough on Thursday to get all of your paperwork taken care of and through tech with both your bike and gear. You will only have about an hour and a half between the class and your first session out on track. Do everything you can to prepare ahead of time.

It is important that all involved, both students and instructors be on time so we can stay on schedule. We have a lot of information to cover in a short amount of time. On behalf of Shane and myself, thank you.

Shane Keaveny
CRA Co-Chief NR Instructor

NOTICE Rule book update.

Posted: June 21, 2019 by President in Announcements

During the June event it was discovered that some verbiage was not clear in the Licensing section.  This prompted the board to add some clarity. (new verbiage in bold)

Section 1.4. Applicants, less than 18 years and over 16 years of age must provide a notarized copy of the CRA Minor License Release Form signed by their parent or guardian.  Licensing of minors under 16 years of age requires the approval of the Chief Steward. Riders under 16 years of age are prohibited.

 

The rule book on the website reflects the recent changes.

Respectfully,

the Board of Directors.

On behalf of the CRA, I would like to extend a huge Thank You to MotoPrimo and their staff for hosting the Seminar. This is a great venue.

Exact numbers can not be made public because of contract agreements with their suppliers and vendor, however in the past the discounts have been significant. Discounts will be on parts, supplies and gear both in stock parts and special order.

The special one day (March 24th) pricing on merchandise at MotoPrimo is available to all current 2019 CRA members. Members only, MotoPrimo is not open to the public for this is a private event for the CRA.

*** Note from Membership – please fill out your paperwork ahead of time to save you time when you get to MotoPrimo. You can take care of your registration on the CRA store. For those that wish to wait until they arrive at Motoprimo – please plan on additional time to fill out your Membership paperwork which must be completed prior to the Seminar. There will NOT be a credit card machine there to accept your payment. All payments must be completed via the CRA store. Please contact Martin Holte, if you have any questions.
