Here is the first of many:
I believe this suggestion would need to be an amendment to the bylaws as I do not see in the rulebook a section that outlines how officials are elected to MRA Board positions:
Election candidate requirements for MRA VP of Rules & Tech:
To be eligible for nomination for VP of Rules & Tech, candidate may not present a conflict of interest between the duties of the position and a source of financial income.
In other words:
If you own, work for, or otherwise have financial interest in a motorcycle performance speed shop, you are not eligible to run for VP of Rules & Tech.
If you distribute or service motorcycle race tires, you are not eligible to run for VP of Rules & Tech.
If any measurable source of income independent of on-track racing activities is sourced through motorcycle sales, performance, or accessories, you are not eligible to run for VP of Rules & Tech.
