Have a question, need an answer? Check out the ABA FAQ page.
If you have searched high and low for answers to your general membership or points questions, you are not the only one. Over the past few months we have been collecting some of our most commonly asked questions. The result is the new Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) page. We developed the FAQ page to answer some of the questions that might not be addressed in the ABA rulebook or on any other section of the website. We hope that this page will prove to be a useful tool to riders and/or parents, so take a quick look.
Rule changes from ABA for the 2008 Race Season
1. A rider determined by an official to have intentionally impeded the progress of another rider during the first 30 feet of the race may be disqualified. To facilitate this rule it is recommended that a clearly visible line extend across the width of the track placed at a point 30 feet from starting gate.
2. When on final straight, a rider determined by an official to have intentionally impeded the progress of another rider may be disqualified.
3. Any rider earning a National Age Group (NAG) ranking will be ineligible for district year-end ranking and any district year-end award. Any subsequent riders in there district point standings will move up in the district year-end point standings to fill the open positions. However NAG riders will still be eligible for 20,000 points award and other promotional programs.
Any questions need to talk to your tracks operators / board members. We will have rulebooks available when we open in the spring. You can also download from ABA website the official rulebook. New rules are in gray in the BMXer magazine Nov./ Dec. 07-issue page 40.
