Okay...... Harrison...... Does Megan get to ride in Juniors still or does she go to Beginner????

What's the verdict on this one?

technically she can do what she wants now...... does you want to finish up her points for Juniors?????? honestly, not sure about beginners, she is not a beginner!!!!!!!!!! Novice Ski Womens!!!!!!!!!

Or give it a shot at beginners next year!!!!!!!!!!

If she raced beginner more than 3 times this year then technically she cant race beginnger and if shes over 15 then she cant race juniors..

the proper class would be womens novice however does surf n turf even offer that??? Id be willing to bet there would be alot more women racing if there was a class for them

She would be allowed to race as a Junior since she has raced it all season......

But, I say step up to Novice.............


If she does, then it would be Autumn vs. Megan..........

Anyone coming near or down I65 or just plain near NW AL? I'm looking for 2 people spots and 1 jetski spot.

We just dont have the funds to make this trip alone but are willing to help out with gas and such. Hit me up if you know anything

hahahhaha. shhhhh. yeah, the womens classes have been lacking this year, even up here in 6. quite frankly it sucked. My sister is gonna be in novice womens this year, im excited to see how she does. she should rip!

callin all girls eh autumn?

edit: if this race in panama is for 2007 high points, megan should race novice, because in 2007 she will not be a junior, therefore she will obtain useless points by racing juniors right now. I dont think a juniors points wil carry over to 2007 if they cant race in it throughout 2007. This is just akward because this race is after havasu, but for the same season. technically megan cant race juniors for the 2007 season cuz of her age, so her points as a junior in panama would be "useless" i cant think of a better word. race novice and accumulate points for the 07 season! i hope someone understands that lol

I would say I have to agree with Megan not racing Junior even though she could if she wanted.

She already has 2nd in SUrf & Turf Series locked up.

If she moves up a class she will aquire points towards 2007 high points.

I am not sure if she could run beginner next year or not given she race this season as Junior and could not be classed as a Beginner then. At a regional level she may could do it but if anyone ever pushed it she might get bumped out.

Olnly problem now is, Donald may be the only 13-15 Junior racing. Who is he going to mix with? I guess maybe mix hos 2 class' with the Novice class.


I don't think we will be able to get there and ride to early on Friday. He has missed several days of school this year racing already even though his principal did excuse all 6 days he missed for WF's.
 
Anyone need a roommate? I just found out 10 minutes ago that I can actually attend but I don't want to pay for two nights in the hotel by myself. If I can't find find someone to split a room with then I'll just show up Saturday around noon. If I can find someone then I'll show up late on Friday. Any takers? Anyone already have a room that they want to split or rent me a piece of the floor?

hmmmm they could both race Junior and Novice!!!!!!!!!!!!

Donald can not run Novice yet, he is only 15. We ask last year about him running Novice some and was told that if the APBA saw him registered in both Junior & Novice they could strip his Junior status & points. They also said he could not move up until he was 16. If he turns 16 mid season he can then move up to Novice and still run Junior the rest of a season as Jake Zier did this year. Donald will not be 16 until August '07 so he can step up at Nashville next year.

Now if a promoter decideds to mix his class with the Novice or Expert as has been done sometimes, then he technically is not racing them and it is OK. Then he is just racing for bragging rights.
