2015 proposed rule changes, a crashed Bucket will not be able to re enter the race at all if the proposed rule change on page 4 go’s through as it is.
On the face of it, its a good proposal but it looks like the time-honoured tradition of a Bucket racer being able to scramble to their feet and continue to race (even after a quick safety check in the pits) is under threat.
Buckets (probably) being the biggest class of RR, and particularly the go kart track riders where low level crashing is a common occurrence need to think the implications of this proposed rule change through and submit their thoughts in a constructive submission to MNZ.
2015 Proposed Rule Change for all RR Classes.

Chapter 22 – Road Racing
22.1.3 – All machines that crash during practice, qualifying or racing cannot continue that session.
At the end of that session crashed machines must be delivered to the Machine Examiners for re-examination and Gear Check before re-entering the circuit. Riders that continue after crashing must be reported to the Clerk of the Course.

Probably affects cart track riders more than the mainland big track riders but for or against put your submissions on this proposed rule change into MNZ now.
