another Provisional question

Ok so from what I've read you don't collect points as a provisional novice. I was talking to someone and they said that if you podium your first race you will get your points as well as getting your provisional removed. I'm not concerned about losing the provisional but I plan on running the entire season next yearand want to be competitive got the series and was wondering if I do in fact get my points.

 

As far as I know getting a podium doesn't automatically remove your provisional status, you still have to do the 2 weekends. But you do get the points, earning those has nothing to do with your status.

 

have the rules been lifted preventing PNs from running nationals? I've got a guy who is a PN who'd I'd like to get on endurance for next year.

 

Couldn't they run their two provisional weekends before the first endurance round and be good to go for endurance when it comes around?

 

traditionally the first southeast round is tally in february and then the first national is roebling in march. we'd need another round to get the shirt off of him.
