Rule Change: Superstreet & Associate Memberships
I propose a change to Section 7.3.D
Current Rule:
A Single Event Superstreet License will be included in the entry fees. An Associate Membership will be included with your entry fees at your first event of the season.
Proposed Rule Change #1:
Eliminate this rule all together
Proposed Rule Change #2:
If a Superstreet rider purchases an Associate Membership they will be given a $25 credit towards an entry to a Superstreet event.
Reasoning:
This rule was added several years back to satisfy an IRS rule related to how much revenue was allowed from non-member sources for a 501c7. This IRS rule has since changed. Just giving Superstreet riders an Associate Membership for signing up doesn't really engage Superstreet riders in actually being a member of the MRA. In most cases they don't even know about it or what it means to be a member of the MRA. This also allows someone 'nefarious' to potentially campaign superstreet riders to influence MRA elections.
