2011 Audi Club North America Event Rules

The minimum helmet rating for Audi Club events for 2011 has been set at Snell M2005. Please keep in mind that a higher minimum standard may apply if mandated by another sanctioning body (e.g., some tracks set their own minimum standard, as do some local club chapters). The minimum helmet rating in the absence of any other sanctioning body mandate is M2005 for Audi Club events.

Please note that ALL convertibles must be equipped with an SCCA-approved 4-point roll bar and will be subject to the broomstick/2-inch rule in order to participate in an ACNA Driver’s School. Attendees with convertibles MUST contact the eventmaster and inform him/her that you wish to participate with a convertible. Link to ACNA website for the helmet and convertible policy is here: http://www.audiclubna.org/acna-events-topmenu-31/acna-event-rules-topmenu-73

The broomstick/2-inch rule means that when a broomstick is placed from the windshield header across to the roll bar, there must be 2 inches or more of space between the HELMETED head of the driver and the bottom of the broomstick. Failure to pass this test means you can’t drive this vehicle at an ACNA Driver’s School. If you fail to notify the eventmaster and just “show up” with a convertible, and subsequently fail the test, you will not receive a refund.

Membership is required for participation in Audi Club driving schools (instructors too). This is not only an issue of member privilege (and member benefit) but also an issue of insurance coverage.



Congratulations to Peter Le Blanc
for winning Best of Class at the Saint Louis European Auto Show, with his 1959 Porche 356 Convertible D.
Congratulations to Reid Vann
for winning 2010 Best of Porche OEM with his Porche 356.

Tentative Calendar of Events

 

St. Patricks Day Parade 2012

Should St. Louis Region take part in the downtown St. Louis St. Patrick’s Day parade? The parade has been put on our 2012 calendar, but we don’t have anyone to coordinate our unit. Each parade group is limited in its size, so we need a contact person to make a list of the names of the members willing to participate and to inform participants once we have filled our parade limit.All our volunteer has to do is receive the volunteer’s e-mails and calls and to make a list of those who want to show their pride in their Porsches by being a part of our parade unit.

If you are willing to be our Parade contact person, drop President Dave a note at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it or a call at (314) 894-7861.  Thanks for helping St. Louis Region carry out an active event calendar

 

     Waiver form for minors

PCA Rules for Minor Participants as Drivers, Passengers, Course Workers, Etc.

The PCA has very specific requirements for minor participants at PCA moving car events.  It is an express condition of PCA’s insurance coverage that minor participants must be covered by a Minor Release and Waiver Form.  This minor waiver form must be printed out IN COLOR and signed by both living parents/legal guardians.  This is the case whether the parents are divorced or not.  The form may not be signed by friends or other relatives.  If one parent is deceased, the living parent may sign alone (with a witness signature), but he or she must also represent that the other parent is deceased.

Here is the good news.  The PCA allows parents to make this an “Annual Waiver”, so that you don’t need to complete one of these for each event.  To convert the event waiver to and annual waiver simply write “ALL PCA EVENTS” on the line for “EVENT NAME / LOCATION” and write “ALL DATES” on the line for “EVENT DATE(S)”.  The original completed waiver should be returned to me, Michael Rosen, 731 Wayfield Drive, Olivette, MO  63132.  Copies should be retained and presented at each event the minor attends.

The form can be downloaded from the club’s website here:
