The Montana 500 fall meeting has been held. The venue will be White Sulphur Springs. The date will be Sunday, June 21st 2015 through Thursday the 25th.

There were only a couple of rule changes. TW timers are allowed and adjustable cam gears are disallowed.

Same weekend as the Speedster Reunion in Nebraska.

It often is. I would be nice if they wouldn't pitch it the same week as the Montana 500 which has been the third week of June for a lot longer than the Speedster Reunion has been around. At least it only conflicts every other year.

Hey Tom - I see where in the rules the TW Timer is allowed but don't see where it says adjustable cam gears are disallowed.

Other than reading this post was wondering how new folks (hoping to race in 2015) would know about the adjustable cam gear rule?

Seth, it's in their tear down manual, last line:

Ouch! My eyes hurt from that bright yellow background. :-)

Thanks Roger.

Seth, I will check with the directors and see if a rule should have been added to the rules proper rather than just the teardown manual.

Mark, these are the "golden rules". :-)

After consulting with a number of the MCCTA directors, the line about not allowing adjustable cam gears in the tear down manual was erroneously added. It has been expurgated. A majority of the directors agreed that no rule disallowing adjustable was passed at the fall meeting.

I am sorry for any confusion this may have caused.

I am pretty sure that expurgating in public is a first class felony in Montana, with a higher sentencing schedule if it involves minors.

Just sayin' ... :-)

I think it was privately expurgated. :-)
