right. The CD does have the flexibility to lift weight limits. The AMA rule book
gives the CD much latitude on these matters. But you are right, the heavier
weight limit went down, 111 to 74. Sorry fellows, that's called Democracy. Over
600 members chose not to vote, even though they received a ballot, so what ya
gonna do?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P>I fully understand that it was not submitted by NSRCA. My question was,
Has anyone submitted a weight change personally? I also think it
would enlightening to know,since the vote margin was close. How many
votes For and Against the weight change came from each individual Class?
But I don't expect that information will be made available.</P></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>>Buddy,
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>The rules proposals that were submitted to AMA was posted
on this list about
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>a month ago. There was no rule proposal for a weight limit
change because
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>the membership did not approve such a change. In a series
of three questions
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>on the original ballot, the members voted "no change", by a
slim majority.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>Better luck next time, or write your own proposal and
submit it. That is
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>your privilege.
<DIV></DIV>

An NSRCA past

proposal to help

out by the AMA
