Reminder upcoming elections

Posted on by Posted in Uncategorized

Just a Friendly Reminder for this Important Information!!!

At the AGM this year, the following positions are up for election:

PRESIDENT: This is a position for someone with Leadership skills, able to Maintain Relationships, and wanting to Make a Difference within ARMS. This position is where you can channel your ideas, suggestions, and problems to the executive and Directors. You will help determine plans and policies, preside at all meetings, including the race committee, and attend President and Board of Director meetings. Every year you can travel to represent ARMS at the ASN Canada FIA advisory meeting, where you can meet Roger Peart, their President!

ARMS current President, Dave Hull, is stepping down this year. After a great many years of representing ARMS, we thank you and wish you the best in your future endeavors! The role of President will be vacant at this year’s AGM and needs to be filled.

SECRETARY: This position is an essential role within ARMS, the secretary works with a close involvement with the other executives in the general running of the club. Secretary’s role is to record and publish all minutes and to publish agenda’s for these meetings. You will be attending all Presidents and Board of Directors meetings. Basic tasks for you are 1. Taking rough notes during the meeting; 2. typing these notes up; 3. distributing them to relevant people; 4. keeping all minutes together in a file for future reference.

ARMS is currently without a Secretary. This role will need to be filled at the AGM this year.

RACE DIRECTOR: For information regarding roles of Directors, please read Section 6.6 (pages 16 & 17) from the ARMS Regional Handbook. Our current director is James Whitman, who has re-offered for this position.

SOLOSPORT DIRECTOR: For information regarding roles of Directors, please read Section 6.6 (pages 16 & 17) from the ARMS Regional Handbook. Our current director is Ming Duc Wong, who has re-offered for this position.

PERFORMANCE RALLY DIRECTOR: For information regarding roles of Directors, please read Section 6.6 (pages 16 & 17) from the ARMS Regional Handbook. Our current director is Clarke Paynter.

If you or someone you know are interested in any of these five (5) positions, please contact our Nominating Committee Stu O’Connor, oconnor.stew@gmail.com, Dave Hull, president@armsinc.ca, and Cathy Partridge, treasurer@armsinc.ca.

I urge you all to take the two roles of President and Secretary very seriously. These are/will be vacant positions that need to be filled. Dave (who will then hold the position of Past President) and myself will need two more people to ensure that we have an arms executive to maintain a properly run region. Please consider yourself or another candidate for these positions. Thank you,

Cathy Partridge
ARMS Treasurer

ORDER OF RUNNING

  • All drivers will be offered a minimum of three runs.
  • Cars will run in numerical order by class (except as necessary and directed by the course chief to facilitate efficient event operation) within each heat until all cars have made a run, then the second run will begin. For cars with two drivers there will be a minimum spacing of 5 minutes. After the completion of each run, vehicles must return directly to the grid.

ENQUIRY, PROTEST & APPEALS:

  • Enquiry, protest and appeals will be handled as per ASN Canada FIA National SoloSport GCRs.

COURSE MARKERS

  • Directional pylons (pylons which are laid on their side) are for informational purposes and do not count if hit. Directional pylons placed directly adjacent to a penalty pylon must be obeyed or a DNF will result. Directional pylons not adjacent to a penalty pylon are for informational purposes only and do not result in a DNF if not followed. If a directional pylon displaces a penalty pylon, the penalty pylon will be assessed.
  • A penalty will be assessed for each displaced course entry and exit pylon.
  • Drivers observed driving at substantially less than normal competition speeds for the purpose of spotting slightly misplaced course markers to earn a re-run will be referred to the Chief Steward for action. As such conduct is considered unsportsmanlike and an unnecessary delay of the event.

TIMING & SCORING

  • Scores will be comprised of the best timed run for each competitor.
  • Scores will be posted in the spectator area on each course. See the Chief of Course to resolve problems. The names of the Chiefs of Course will be posted on the same bulletin boards as the times. THE TIMING & SCORING AREAS ARE OFF LIMITS FOR COMPETITORS, CREW AND SPECTATORS, unless invited to enter by an event official.
  • After the completion of each heat, times will be moved to the Posting area.

CAR NUMBERS

  • Car numbers must comply with the ASN Canada FIA National AutoSlalom Regulations. See section 4.4.
  • One set of numbers should be affixed to each side of the vehicle and should be legible from the timing and scoring van.
  • Failure to properly identify the car number can result in the run not being timed.
  • Car numbers for second drivers must be separated by at least 100.

DRIVERS MEETING NOTES

  • There will be a brief driver’s meeting before the event. Changes to the Supplementary Regulations and other items of information as well as the names of all event officials will be included in the packet of material provided at on-site registration, or posted on the official notice board. IT IS A COMPETITOR’S RESPONSIBILITY TO CHECK THE OFFICAL NOTICE BOARD FOR CHANGES TO THE SUPPLEMENTAL REGULATIONS.

ENTRANTS AS WORKERS

  • All competitors are required to work the event. Qualified replacements may be used as substitutes in worker assignments. However, workers must notify the Chief of Course prior to the substitution. Failure to comply or properly perform assigned duties will result in additional work assignments or disqualification, as executed by the Event Chairman.
  • Early work assignments that offset a normal work assignment must be pre-approved by the Event Chairman and Chief of Workers. These assignments must be extremely limited to prevent loss of critical support during the event. Serving as a volunteer prior to the event is greatly appreciated and a key element in success of this event. However, this does not automatically offset a normal work assignment.

WORKER MEETING NOTES

  • Workers will report to their respective Chief of Workers before the beginning of the last run of the heat prior to their assigned work heat for a brief instructional session and assignment. First heat workers will report at 10:45 a.m. Subsequent heat workers are to report to their specific Course Worker Chief before the beginning of the third run on the previous Heat. Failure to report on time will result in an additional work assignment after the finish of the last heat on that day. Not complying with these rules will result in disqualification.

COURSE WORKER INSTRUCTIONS

Course working is a serious assignment. Watch the other people in your station and be aware that a car may leave the pavement if it becomes out of control.

DO

    • Check-in with the Chief of Workers prior to the beginning of your work heat.
    • Make sure your station has adequate supplies (extra pylons, radio, and a red flag).
    • Know your area of responsibility and the location of your radio person.
    • Make sure all of the cones in your area are in the proper place when you first come on station AND periodically check them all during your work shift.
    • Read and understand the pylon rules. Pointer cones do not count if hit.
    • Pay attention to the cars on course for accurate cone counts AND your safety.
    • Replace cones as soon as possible as another car will be through the course in another 20-30 seconds.
    • Be prepared for exposure to sun, rain, wind, heat, cold, etc. while on course.

DO NOT

    • Use cameras on a corner station.
    • Sit down or wander from your post.
    • Turn your back to the cars on course.
