Race Cert doesnt expire... but they used to have a rule if you were not active for a while, that you may need to re-cert..... Im sure the rule book has that one in it and easy to find.
The Sat sched... granted is harder for those who work on Sat.. but in the long run is better for the masses.... It helps eliminate excessive tire changes from Dot's to Slicks and back again...... Helps get us on our way home earlier from that nice 7hr drive back from Hastings..., and when its a crash fest day...... and for those who race only SS or SB classes...(Mostly) get to only come on the day their races take place... Heck a SS rider can come on Sat and be home by dinner time and still have a weekend left... Overall, the minor amount of folks it may create a schedule conflict for (which Im sure can be worked out since it was out months ahead of time) will pail in comparrison to the folks it will help out...... But the nice part is the MRA is always looking to make things work better for everyone... If the new plan works.. great... If not, Im sure they will make changes accordingly.... Personally I cant be more happy about it..
