7) 2018 rules concerning pets at the track.
No pets are allowed at any CMRA events – No exceptions. This includes pets restricted to trailers and motorhomes. You will be asked to leave the facility and/or pay a fine of no less than $100 per day if found in violation.
The CMRA will be following the federal ADA Requirements concerning service animals. Service animals are defined as dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. Examples of such work or tasks include guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, pulling a wheelchair, alerting and protecting a person who is having a seizure, reminding a person with mental illness to take prescribed medications, calming a person with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) during an anxiety attack, or performing other duties. Service animals are working animals, not pets. The work or task a dog has been trained to provide must be directly related to the person’s disability. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the ADA
(see https://www.ada.gov/service_animals_2010.htm).
8) The BoD voted unanimously yesterday to add Ultra Lightweight GP Expert, E Superbike Expert, and E Superstock Expert to the classes that count towards the overall Expert #1 plate.
