AMS Staff Leasing Pro Modified Challenge 2007 Rules
Revisions
After reviewing the rule changes from IHRA, we are of the opinion that while pairity is critical to competition, we feel the racers have paid enough money to try to balance the series. We have addressed the proposed changes, and will abide by the published 2006 IHRA rules, with the following amendments. These changes are pending final review and acceptance by the series Board.
