Did you read the D-37 December 2011 Competition newsletter? On page 6, there is an article about Special Recreation Permit (SRP) Rules and Guidelines for Pit Layouts at D-37 Races. It includes a diagram to show us how pit row should be laid out. With Jackrabbits H&H coming up this weekend, you need to read this.

Keep in mind these rules are not new. We simply have not been following them closely in the past. They are now being enforced by the BLM because of the infamous truck crash a year ago. If clubs up and down pit row do not follow them, the club hosting the event can receive a negative mark by the BLM. This will affect whether we in D-37 can race again in the future. Yep, this is serious, folks.

1. All competitors must obey the 15 mph speed limit (1st gear) in the pit area.

2. Only active pit personnel are allowed within the pit vehicle parking area (where the bikes pull in).

3. Pit personnel MUST BE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OLD.

4. Spectators must remain far back behind the trucks holding the pit items and gas. This also means anyone under 18 years old.

5. All vehicles must be a minimum of 10 feet behind the pit area. (Spectators must remain far behind those vehicles at all times.)

6. All participants are required to have suitable fire extinguishers at their fuel/service pit

Notes: 1. The maximum fuel allowed on the ground is 35 gallons. The rest must remain in the back of the pit trucks.

2. Use a fuel spill control rug under motorcycle while fueling.

Please take the time to familiarize yourself and educate your spectator guests about the SRP pit area rules and guidelines prior to attending a District 37 desert race.
