Motion Put Forth By Andrew Vernon Regarding The street stud Class and spec<br />

tire for the 2014 season …<br />

Tires<br />

Two tire options allowed for 2014 race season, either Sailun Ice Blazer WST1 or<br />

Hankook iPike RC01. Tires will be studded using Bruno Wessel TSMI #13 LWS<br />

9MM (pressed) stud. Any tires still running Bruno Wessel TSMI #13 9mm stud<br />

(sintered) will be grandfathered in. Stud pocket depth shall not be modified in<br />

any way. Studs may not be modified in any way.<br />

Stud Count<br />

Full studding of any spec tire will be allowed.<br />

Studding<br />

Studding is allowed by all racers or third parties. Studding will be available by<br />

either the Minden Canadian Tire or by the series scrutineer for a cost of $18 per<br />

tire.<br />

Glue<br />

Gluing of studs is allowed, limited by the stipulation that the glue added does not<br />

alter the stud pocket depth .<br />

Enforcement<br />

Once per weekend, after any given SS race, the top three class finishers will be<br />

pulled aside after their race and have a stud pulled from one of their drive tires<br />

to verify that the stud is within spec. This means a maximum of six studs over<br />

the course of the season for any one car.<br />

Penalties<br />

First offence - points taken away for weekend<br />

Second offence - season ban.<br />

All six separate motions were voted on, seconded and passed unanimously.<br />

Motion put forth by Carol Lane, Steve Robson, Bryan Rashleigh,<br />

Jonathan Rashleigh and Ken Shaw. To combine class 2 and 3, and also 12<br />

and 13, to allow all front drive cars to run together in they’re own race. These<br />

two races will be once again known as class 2 and class 12 on the schedule.<br />

Motion seconded by Lisa Shaw …and carried.


Motion put forth by Victor Del Col to allow engines above 3000cc in modified<br />

class.<br />

Seconded by Ian MacIntyre …Carried.<br />

Other clarifications to the rulebook by Victor will be carried out by the Ice Race<br />

Director as part of Rulebook “housekeeping’.<br />

Motion put forth by Larry Laycock with regard to defining in the rule book,<br />

what constitutes a pass under a yellow flag/light. This was left up to the Ice<br />

Race Director to make changes in the rule book to define this contentious issue.<br />

Motion put forth by Shane Hutton to split SS1 and SS4 in the schedule. After<br />

much discussion and debate it was voted on. With 13 for the motion and 11<br />

against the motion was carried, and with many abstainers it was once again left<br />

up to the Ice Race Director to figure this out.<br />

Motion put forth by Paul Einerson to implement a rule that states that all race<br />

cars must have a solid tow hook or equivalent at both the front and rear of the<br />

vehicle. This motion was carried unanimously and made mandatory.<br />

New Business …<br />

It was discussed at length as to how we would promote our sport to bring<br />

our entries back up to the levels of years past. It was decided to get the<br />

individual clubs involved in promotion as well as more media contact.<br />

The Minden Kinsmen will have no increases in fees for the 2014 season.<br />

Online registration was discussed and we will see how this goes in the summer<br />

season with various other divisions before committing.<br />

The possibility of studded Go-Karts as another class was discussed to bring our<br />

numbers up. The subject quickly turned to Insurance and a classification by ASN<br />

on this class. It was discussed that any entrant must be at least sixteen years of<br />

age and hold a valid <strong>Ontario</strong> driver’s license, as well as a basic <strong>CASC</strong> race license.<br />

After much debate it was decided that any interested parties that wish to hold a<br />

trial race or series on the Family day Monday in February of 2014 do so with<br />

proof of said insurance, naming all the regular additional insured by the start of<br />

the 2014 season. Such proof will be made available to the <strong>CASC</strong> and Minden<br />

Kinsmen.<br />

Motion to adjourn was made by Heather Peckham – Hughes, seconded by Dale<br />

Turton. Meeting was adjourned at 10:27am.
