Another entrant or his/her representative can protest you. Responsibility of meeting proper rider classification and machine specifications rests with the individual entrants. If you are a Pro/A, B or C rider at some other venue, then you must compete at the same class level at DMC Motorsports, LLC events. See DMC Race Director for questions.

“A” Class: This class is for riders who are classified as advanced or “A”, Pro, expert, Pro-Am, Money or highest advanced class.

A rider CANNOT change classification from class to class. (e.g. Intermediate in one class and Pro in another)
