Every RMVR member can do their part. Remember, the fund raising effort isn’t just for drivers. RMVR spouses, family members, and workers can all easily get involved in raising money for this worthwhile cause. It’s easy.

The Race Against Kids’ Cancer to benefit the Morgan Adams Foundation is approaching quickly. We are excited about the prospect of making a significant impact on the Morgan Adams Foundation budget this year through the race in July, and hope that you will set a personal goal to raise $500 or more this year. We know this is a lot of money, but think of the impact we will have on the Morgan Adams Foundation, on pediatric cancer research and on the reputation of RMVR when we achieve this goal!

Now is the time to start approaching friends, family, business associates, and others to support our efforts to raise money for the Morgan Adams Foundation. Please ask these contacts to sponsor you during the race weekend. Your sponsors will have the satisfaction of knowing that their tax-deductible contribution to the Morgan Adams Foundation will be used to support on-going pediatric cancer research in the hopes of finding cures to these diseases. You will also be given a sticker with their name to place on your car that weekend thanking them for their support.

Ready to help?

Download the solicitation packet, which contains information about RMVR, about the Morgan Adams Foundation, and about how contributions will be used.

Included in the packet is:

• Information about the Morgan Adams Foundation to help you inform potential donors of MAF’s goals and achievements in finding cures for children’s cancer.
• A sample letter which you can use to write to ask them to help.
• A description of the goodies you can earn for getting donations.
• A schedule of benefits for major donors.
• And to make it easy for your donors, there is a simple remittance form. You don’t even have to bother yourself with collecting of the money.

If you have a lead on a major corporate sponsor and would like help, please don’t hesitate to pass that contact info on to one of us on the organizing committee. We’d be only to glad to help in making a presentation. The attached also contains the “perks” which major contributors will receive.

So it’s time to get busy and see if we can’t build on last year’s success. Be bold for the kids!

Thank you from the RMVR Charity Race Committee

To prepare a car for RMVR eligibility, you should first be sure to read the appropriate RMVR rules for preparation of your car. No sense in making modifications to the car only to find out the modifications aren’t legal.

In most cases, RMVR’s rules for preparing cars are based on previous versions of SCCA’s General Competition Rules (GCR) including the appropriate SCCA Production Car Specifications (PCS) or GT Car Specifications (GTCS) for that era. Cars must also conform to RMVR Exceptions to those rules. Those exceptions exist for a variety of reasons (updated safety, allowing some other modifications, or clarifying some SCCA ambiguity). Be sure to read and understand all these documents related to your race car.

In addition to the rules, the Application For Eligibility form is specific to your particular class of car. To help you find the correct rules and application, please refer to the table below. We have Specialists on the Eligibility Team to help you. The names, phone numbers and email addresses of those Specialists are provided in the respective Applications. Please work with the Specialist on any questions you might have prior to submitting the competed form.

The Eligibility Specialist will then review your application and advise you in writing of its acceptance or (hopefully not) rejection. If your application is accepted, you’ll receive a fresh RMVR Logbook and the assigned number for the car. If it is rejected, the letter will explain the deficiency. The Specialist will be available to work with you to resolve any issues.

If you have purchased a car which previously had an RMVR logbook, you will need to submit the car for eligibility again. Having a prior logbook with a prior owner does not insure that the car still meets eligibility requirements. The club’s familiarity with the car will help expedite the process. The previous car number assigned by RMVR does not go with a car when sold. You can apply for that same number, but the club reserves the right to assign a new number. We’ll try, but can’t guarantee the same number is still available.

Oh, by the way, is your RMVR membership current? And are you ready to go racing?
