Unfinished Business:
Proposal from FTR member David Hall was revisited from the meeting at
Hilliard. The proposal is a follows: Nerf bars with nets are needed to
prevent wheel or any other part of a fellow competitorís quad from hitting
the rider. This also prevents the wheel from coming in contact causing
a quad to flip. The nets keep a riderís foot from getting caught under
the quad or in another riderís wheel.

G. Quads are to have nerf bars with nets to compete.
