We would like to take a moment to reinforce the importance of safety during your races. Our primary concern is always the well-being and safety of our participants, and adhering to proper safety protocols is crucial to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone involved.
Therefore, we kindly remind all School Bus Figure Eight Drivers that you are required to wear the same safety gear you do in other racing events. This includes the use of Racecievers, which help maintain effective communication and enhance overall safety on the track.
In addition, we would like to extend this reminder to all School Bus Figure Eight riders. It is imperative that each rider complies with the following safety measures:
Leather Shoes: Ensure that you wear sturdy, closed-toe leather shoes that provide ample protection for your feet.
Jeans: Wear long pants made of denim or similar durable material to protect your legs from any potential hazards.
Long Sleeve Shirts: Put on long-sleeved shirts or tops that cover your arms completely. This offers an additional layer of protection.
Gloves: Ensure you wear gloves that provide excellent grip and safeguard your hands from potential injuries. Please use approved gloves that are suitable for racing or any other appropriate protective gloves.
Approved Helmet: Always wear a properly fitted, approved racing helmet that meets safety standards. This will shield your head and minimize the risk of head injuries.
HANS or Neck Collar: Utilize a Head and Neck Support (HANS) device or an approved neck collar to protect your neck and minimize the chances of whiplash or related injuries.
Five-Point Harness: It is mandatory to equip your seat with a five-point harness system for all occupants. This advanced restraint system enhances safety by securely holding each rider in place during races and minimizing the risk of injury. Please ensure that the five-point harness is properly installed and utilized by all participants at all times.
These safety measures are non-negotiable and are in place to prioritize your well-being. We urge all participants to take them seriously and strictly adhere to them at all times during School Bus Figure Eight races.
Remember, safety is a collective responsibility, and each one of you plays a vital role in ensuring a secure and enjoyable racing environment. By following these guidelines, we can all contribute to the success of the events while prioritizing the safety of ourselves and others.
Thank you for your cooperation and dedication to upholding these safety standards.
