Bylaws- Approved
 President: Tony Baker-
 Thank you John Burr for arranging room at Blake St Tavern.
 Things we’re doing differently next year:
• ninja 250 spec class, Formula 40 class.
• New additional class “Thunderbike”.
• It wasn’t approved last season because it was proposed to do away with STGTU.
• It’s a new middleweight twins class but will allow older twins such as Aprilia, TL1000R, etc.
 Another big change is consolidating Race of Rockies.
• Everyone runs one race and does one qualifying and is eligible for top 10 plate and purse money.
• For purposes of contingency you will be scored in ROR GTO and GTU.
• Should allow more sign ups & increase payout.
• Should make for more exciting racing.
• Glen asked if it was possible that a GTU rider could win #1 plate and response is yes.
 Insurance
• Shopping for insurance and Wells wants to increase use to $50k for a season.
• We are shopping around.
• We are the AMA’s oldest sanctioned club in the county but don’t be surprised if we don’t stick elsewhere.
 2011 season
• Season schedule is done but still working on daily schedule.
• Did away with endurance practice.
• Saturday will be 4 laps longer but Sunday will be 12 laps shorter.
• Ricky O asked when we are running ROR.
• It will be run right after lunch.
• Chris Dale asked if there is still qualifying and answer is yes.
• There will be 3 races before lunch on Saturday.
• We were going to lunch at 11 and making the corner workers work 7 hours in the afternoon.
• This will make it more reasonable for them.
• Transponder system is functioning.
• Downside of replacing is riders already purchased transponder.
• Other systems are not good for scoring or gridding.
• Explanation of why transponder system failed.
