2011 RULE BOOK
2011 WYALUSING VALLEY MOTORSPORTS PARK RULE BOOK
The Wyalusing Valley Motorsports Park Rule Book has been totally re-written for 2011. The clone kart engines have seen the majority of the changes, along with many of the track policies and procedures. As we gain experience in operating a race facility, we often see opportunities for improvement or necessity to clarify some procedures to reduce confusion and to attempt to produce a smooth running system.
It is YOUR responsibility to know and comply to ALL track rules and procedures, as well as to build and maintain your race machine within all technical specs.
IGNORANCE OF OUR RULES OR PROCEDURES IS NO EXCUSE!!!
Should the need arise to amend anything covered in these rules, it will be listed in Section 11 (Amendments). In parenthesis behind that listing in the index will be the number of amendments that have been made for quick reference.
