new rules for 2009

saltydog · Postby **saltydog** » January 11th, 2009, 9:15 pm

Today due to that fact that there were no helmets for rent as was arranged, we allowed people that did not have helmets to run without them. This will not be allowed at the next event.

I suggest that all persons wanting to compete make sure they have their own helmet. The club will buy 4 helmets that we will rent to those that need for fun runs.

Apologies to the one person (DE-VE) that i was to rent a helmet to yersterday but didnt appear due to an injury i developed at an earlier event in the day.

CL101, the guys promised to post it up soon, but there was a briefing on the new rules yesterday.

rule 1 must have dot or snell approved helmet!

there will be a point system for mods, depending on the class. When you get a certain number of points you will get a class bump. It is possible to be bumped up two classes if you have enough points.

eg, Racing tyres (anything under 140 TW) is a class bump.

I can understand that but If I had 10 helmets to rent they would have all been rented and no one would have been driving without.

So who else still need to get a helmet?

Heading down to Mini City this Saturday to pick one up.

Maybe if a couple of us buying together we might get a better price?

CARS decided to buy some helmets to ensure that everyone will have one on the day. We will rent at the going rate and helmet socks will be available as well. If you do not have a helmet yet do not let this stop you from competing, just come early to make sure you reserve yours.

Postby **eliteauto** » January 23rd, 2009, 9:00 am

^^^ the "socks" are for sale?

an alternative to socks aka balaclavas is those surgical hair net thingies....they fairly cheap and sisposable. That place on cor wrightson and anna streets sells them by the box

I recommend CARS keep an eye on the rented helmets and who wearing head gear, as helmets become sweaty VERY fast..........best to factor in the cost of febreeze in the rental cost

honda hoe · Postby **honda hoe** » January 23rd, 2009, 9:34 am

dat sounds unhygenic

MG Man · Postby **MG Man** » January 23rd, 2009, 9:44 am

once you wear a balaclava you good to go, but yeah, helmets get sweaty fast

Yes the "socks" are for sale by Andy in Minicity. He sells HJC ones for $95.

These cover the "cap" of your head only, unlike the balaclava.

Or get the hair nets like MG said, but these will not be as absorbent as the socks.

Postby **eliteauto** » January 23rd, 2009, 12:03 pm

nice, balaclavas can fell hot and stuffy in our weather sometimes

Indeed that bloke would feel right at home in a stuffy uppercrust environment, probably having tea and scones, while watching chavs compete

Why ?

Febreeze is not a sanitizer. If you are concerned about hygene you would need Lysol disinfecting spray.

I was only thinking of the stinky-factor. Lysol would be better
