SECTION 4 - ENTRY PROCEDURE
4.1 In order to compete in any AHRMA-permitted event, riders must sign an AHRMA or AMA supplied entry form. By signing the form, every entrant agrees to be subject to the rules of this book and any supplements.
4.2 All entry blanks must be signed in ink by riders, and by parents or legal guardians as required. Entrants and photographers/media physically entering sanctioned events are required to sign a liability release and waiver prior to their participation and to have such liability release and waivers signed by a parent or legal guardian, as necessary. When signing the required liability release and waivers, entrants, photographers/media and parents agree not to sue AHRMA for any injury occurring to themselves or their property at AHRMA events and further agree to reimburse AHRMA for all losses or costs it suffers as a result of their participation at AHRMA-approved events.
4.3 Only United States currency, personal checks, money orders and MasterCard/Visa cards will be accepted for payment of entry fees for AHRMA events.
4.4 BAD CHECKS: A $25 fee will be added to the face value of every returned check. Failure to redeem a dishonored check within 10 days of notification will result in the rider being dropped from the license rolls. Reinstatement will only be possible following the redemption of the check and a new license application, accompanied by full fees.
4.5 ENTRY FEES
a) Entry fees vary, depending on the event and locations
b) There is no entry fee for riders over age 70.
4.6 PRE-ENTRIES
a) All AHRMA dirt track, motocross and roadrace national events will be pre-entry unless instructed otherwise. Trials and cross country will be post-entry, except for certain events, which will be advertised as pre-entry.
b) Some events may be pre-entry only. Conditions of pre-entry will be contained in all advertisements and published in Vintage Views.
c) When a pre-entry is received, the rider will be entered in the event and placed on the grid.
d) All entries received after the pre-entry deadline will be returned and refunded.
e) Unless entries are limited, post-entries will be accepted at dirt track, motocross, and roadrace nationals. Riders may post-enter classes based upon available grid space, at double the pre-entry fee for the first class entered.
f) Registration may determine at any time that an entry list is full, and refuse further entries.
g) Participants may be required to purchase additional insurance, gate pass, pit or paddock passes, as determined by the individual track or promoter. At National events, AMA membership is required in addition to AHRMA membership for any pass other than general admission.
4.7 REFUNDS
a) Refunds will be issued only to pre-entered riders who have completed a refund request form. The form may be obtained from registration at an event, on-line at www.ahrma.org or from the AHRMA office. This form must be filed with the office by mail, fax or e-mail, or with an AHRMA official at the event. Requests for refunds or credits will not be accepted via telephone.
b) A rider contacting the AHRMA office up through the day of the event will be refunded the full amount, less a $5 administrative charge. A rider filing for refund not more than 14 days after the event will be refunded 50 percent of the total entry. After that time, the entry fee will be deposited into the Benevolent Fund. This policy applies to national events unless noted otherwise on the entry form.
c) If a rider signs in, and his machine passes tech, there shall be no refund.
