Page 12 - Course Rules - Line # 2 Proposal tabled A lengthy discussion was held regarding the number of scorecards received to the FTR Scorekeeper after the 10-24-99 FTR Enduro that had been altered. The Committee found that out of all riders involved, a check worker at the check had altered some cards. Since this fact was known, the Committee could not prove that some altering did not occur at the check. The FTR Enduro Committee would encourage the Clubs and riders to handle scorecards in the following manner. Clubs should remove the scorecards at the last check and hand the bottom copy to the rider at that time. At all times, the rider is responsible for any altering of his scorecard and should protest or prove the correct score before the protest period is over. All riders should review the FTR rules covering altered scorecards and clear any doubt or be subject to the penalty as stated in the FTR rulebook. Clubs should advise check workers to initial any necessary changes, at that time, to provide a reference to the rider before the end of protest. A proposal by Lee Daley, second by Buddy Gaillard Rule Change concerning time clocks. Change 20 to 5 seconds. Chapter IV, Section E, Line 5 Change to read; The starters time shall be official. If any timing device is found to be inaccurate by more than five seconds, or if any timing device fails, such Checking Station shall be considered an Observation Check only.
