plus if the championship race were later in the season ( just say oct for example) people would know better if they were going to pres cup therefore wanting a jersey ( rather than 3rd week in august)so it would be easier.. on the down side i dont know if you have to have jersey orders in by a certain date… depends on what the turnaround time is once the order is placed.
i agree with bill get the 50% deposit at championship( or as soon as possible) then collect balance at the awards dinner
i still say distribute jerseys at the pres cup race. unless you dont care if the rider actually goes to the race. it used to be anyone could just buy a jersey instead of earning one and then for some reason they said you HAD to race the cup to get it. i dont see why it matters anyone wearing a nj jersey is representing the state who cares if they race the pres cup. what if the rider is #1 in their class but little jonny cant go to the race? he still earned the jersey. i feel anyone who participated in state series should be able to buy a jersey. if you go to the race then maybe you get reimbursed for it( like they used to) if you dont then you pay full price.
