WERA AND CMRA PARTNER FOR THEIR RIDERS!


For 2023 the CMRA and WERA will partner and offer any CMRA Licensed rider the opportunity to accumulate points in like classes by purchasing a dual CMRA/WERA License for $50.00 for the season and will qualify the riders to race in those classes at the WERA Grand National Finals via their points scored in those classes. CMRA and WERA have a long history of working together and this is just one step toward making it easier for a CMRA rider to qualify for the GNF and give them the opportunity to travel and race at some tracks not on the CMRA Schedule for the 2023 Season.


The eligible classes for dual points are:

Formula 1 & 2 Expert and Novice

A, B and C Superbike and Superstock Expert and Novice

Heavyweight Twins Superbike (CMRA Heavyweight Twins) Expert and Novice

Lightweight Twins Superbike (CMRA Lightweight Twins) Expert and Novice

Still working out details for things like that. I'll talk to the boss but my current thought is since we'll basically have a CMRA region, if July Barber doesn't go against a CMRA race, possibly make that event a crossover to that region - so it would pay points in it in the classes we're combining and would then also do grids off of the Southeast, Mid Central, and CMRA regional points positions.

Also anyone currently with both licenses is already set.

 

I damn near got permanently banned and/or arrested for that one...

 

I love having a contract listing what parts of the track we can use - right up until we're actually there using them and they kick us out of those parts. Lord what a mess.
