If you mean offsetting hotel rooms etc, then everyone, of course, can ask for donations for NJBMX Inc. as they are a

non-profit charitable organization
and are allowed to take donations, grants, etc.
There is no limit to what they can take in.
Go out and ask for donations, if someone would like to make an official flyer to pass out while they are doing this, it might help out as well and make the NJBMX state organization look better as well.

How can you make sure that the money gathered will be used toward the president cup……look at what happened to the grant 🙄

I don’t know the details, and frankly I don’t care… are you saying we should abandon the class rule? or that a judgement call was wrong today?

Not saying it was wrong….I don’t personally have a problem with it. I am just saying that when someone goes to race open and doesn’t feel like racing class, then there should not be any problems.

Loren…I was not bashing anyone or trying to start problems, just pointing out that change can happen and it can be good. Pro opens are not run often so the racing “class” is not going to change for majority of the races.

The class rule is an nbl rule, kudos to EHT for taking a stand against a bad rule on the nbl’s part.

Of course I’m sure no one will tell anyone who this was.
I love BMX racing drama.

You are right about the rule and I am sure that the person who this was done for would not have a problem with letting people know who it was….No drama and no bitching just stating a fact.

[moderator1]

Nobody says you can’t race class…..All I am saying is that if you do it for one than everyone should be able to.

Openness. On BOTH sides is all it takes.

Why is there 2 sides…..I thought that everyone was suppose to be on the same side…..the side of improving and bettering the sport of BMX.

what are the open positions they will be voting on this yr for nj state board?

State Commish & Secretary

[moderator1]

ok, ok…..back on subject.

[moderator1]

Understand that, just showing the only rule that I could find on it.

But if you do not have to race the championship race because of injury or other valid absence to receive a state ranking, than why can’t someone who crashes in practice be giving the same lenience?

[moderator1]

From NJBMX:

Special Notes:
If a rider qualifies for the Championship and is unable to race it due to illness, injury or other valid absence, he or she can still earn their state ranking (last place in their class) and qualify for the President’s Cup by sending a letter to the State Clerk within 7 days of the Championship stating why they cannot race.

… It’s cool that they had it down at EHT so people could get a look at it.

Wonder if all the tracks got a picture to put out?

If he left before the motos then why not give him back his $20.
