1st VP- Mike Tobin
-KISW balance was paid from the SOTP weekend
coverage.
-We are locked into our IMS booth, but location is 
yet to be determined. Staffing for the weekend will 
be needed so contact Mike if you are interested.
-He would like to have a newsletter once again. Mike 
has some interest in people who are willing to write 
articles, but more are needed. 
-Working on some race day lunch time promotions. 
Maybe some two-up rides or SuperMoto mini race. 
Suggestions are welcome.
-Suggestion made to use the paddock during the 
endurance race for an exhibition event.
-Discussion on whether the newsletter will be monthly 
or quarterly. Will it be mailed out or online? These 
items are not decided yet and suggestions are 
welcome. 

2nd VP- Bill Hallanger
-Rule changes are being accepted at 2ndvp@wmrra.com 
or through the online submission for on the WMRRA 
website. Read your rulebooks for submittal 
instructions.
-Read your rulebooks before the endurance race to 
familiarize yourself with the rules.
-What are the rules for a novice to participate in 
the Endurance race? Your rulebook states in Section 
B.14.d.VII that a novice MUST petition the Executive 
Board in writing. Contact your Novice Rep to submit 
your petitions.

3rd VP- Ariana Burgess
-Scoring is final for Round 4. 
-An issue with overall season points on the website 
has been corrected. Please check your results and let 
Ariana know if you see any problems. This latest 
correction mainly affected the Lightweight Superbike 
class.
-We are requiring that crew members fill out the 
endurance waiver for the protection of the club. This 
ensures that all crew members are aware of the 
dangers of racing. 
-Question on why the medical form asks for a social 
security number and other personal information. Can 
we change the form to say that it is optional? The 
suggestion also is for the forms not be kept in the 
trailer. There should be a secure place for these 
forms.
-Suggestion raised that in the past all racer forms 
have been shredded every 2 years. 
-Discussion on why the waiver must be filled out 
every race weekend. Allister answers that we had 
problems in the past with racers not signing it at 
the beginning of the year, and we feel this is a sure 
way of protecting the club. 
-You can pick up wrist bands for your endurance crew 
at registration when you turn in your paperwork this 
weekend.

President- Allister MacKinnon
-Allister was contacted by a new go-kart club that 
wants to rent 6-8 sections of our Airfence for their 
new track. The owner will be sending Allister 
information on weights and velocity of the go-karts. 
They are willing to be responsible for any damages 
incurred. We need to find out more about where the 
bails will go and what the risks are. 
The event is this weekend, so a decision will have to 
be made soon. 

Airfence Committee
-Question posed: Have we charged the race day 
organization for damaging a bail? We have not charged 
them for damages and the future Airfence committee 
will make these decisions for 2009.
-Suggestion to set up a PayPal account to let non-
members donate to the Airfence fund. We could also 
suggest to the track days organizations to have a 
donation box.
-Proposal to give NESBA a discount for the Monday 
track day, since they had to set up some of the 
Airfence with their own members and lost some track 
day. The Executive Board members present unanimously 
voted to give them a $250 credit towards their next 
Airfence bill. 

Novice Rep- Nico Tomacelli
-No report.
-Has there been a punishment assessed to the novice 
that oiled the track? We have been assured he will 
not be racing with us in the future.  
-Suggestion to encourage mentors to look in on their 
novices throughout the race day and keep in touch 
with them often.
-Reminder from Tech Inspector that novices will be 
required to go through the tech line next weekend. 

Supersport Rep- Ross Delong

rulebook will be made available as soon as possible.

rented for Monday September 8th. Contact him if you 
are interested in attending or need more information.
