Title: Advancement to Expert
Post by: Scotty Ryan on October 17, 2004, 10:15:54 PM
Dumb question, Does CCS send out a list of amatures that are advanced to Expert the following season, or if you met their points requirement do you just sign up for expert? Thanks all

CCS will post a list of automatic upgrades.  Also when you get your 2005 Racer Information Package, you can just sign up as an Expert.

See you all at Homestead!

Scott, you going to ROC?

I think you have the motivation and skills to move up.  Get a letter together to Kevin Elliott that you want to be expert.  

If you need help, I think you have my e-mail address.  I'll put together a letter to Kevin if you need me to.

 Well thanks dave I really would like to be racing with the experts. I think you always have to have something to work towards and learning to ride at a higher pace is what I feel I need. I was really loooking forward to the ROC but at the last BlackHawk round if you remember I lost the front end in the oil covered kink on the back straight and ended up breaking my ankle in three places along with severley crushing veins,tissue,muscel and everything else in the left foot. The bad part is the veins, swelling just about gone now but I won't be able to walk with out a cast for about a month and a half or two. Boss won't let me come back to work till then either (BROKE A$$). It would be great if you could help me out with a letter, I'm not that good with that sort of thing. Are you going to the ROC?

Hey Scott,

I am pretty sure you are getting bumped without even having to petition. You have way over 750 points and won a couple of regional championships, so that should be fine.

I don't think you would need to petition.

Is that what they are going by, 750 regional points??

Yup. 750 regional points in a 12 month period, or a top 5 at the ROC. You can appeal if you wish...

Yeah, I remember the pieces...

You know about the "bone stuff"?

You might be able to go to a GNC store and get a suppliment called MCHC.

That will speed the bone healing process...I had a good hand in two weeks.

I will have to go look for the MCHC. Thanks for the idea

Maybe that will mean that hopefully the fast amatuers next year will be slower than the fast one's this year!!

Guess I'm just getting bored with the board

Severe crushing of the ankle

I lost a class championship to that - I think I had only crashed twice up to that point - Damn

I still don't understand why so many people oil the track - Even after they go through tech

I know I'm opening a can of worms - But even at Road America last weekend I remember at least one delay for oil....

why did the rules change from 750 points down to 400 for bumping to ex?  (or has it been progressively lowered since this thread started 4 years ago...)

They lowered the amount of points you get per race.
