2008 MC Rules changes - steering stops

[Seldom Seen Slim]

'07 SCTA rulebook, P. 100, first thing on the page:

7.B.17  Steering damper: Required in all classes.

It's in the general motorcycle requirements, near the front of the bike section.  No equivocating -- required.

By the way, since the comma cop hasn't been heard from recently -- there is no letter "n" in the word damper.  It's NOT dampener, it's not dampner, it IS damper.  Just thought I'd mention this. . .

Hey, John, what do you expect -- I posted my comment at about a quarter to nine in the morning -- and it wasn't even 6AM in your part of the world.  You just weren't awake yet, that's all.

When I'm inspecting I look for compliance to the rules vis-a-vis safety.  I don't look for class compliance, nor do I ask the entrant to show me his spelling abilities, unless he's written something in his logbook that is so difficult to understand that I have to ask for a translation.

When someone elects to offer examples of his spelling skills in a public setting (such as this forum) I don't feel so constrained, however, hoping that once in a while an onlooker will appreciate my efforts to improve an individual's understandability.

And I certainly don't see that it's commendable to congratulate others when they brag about their inability to spell.  Many of us feel that there's value in knowing how to clearly communicate without showing our inabilities.

I certainly didn't think that Jon was "raging".  He's a real asset (yes, Ass-e-t) to our group and this board.  And he knows where the Cap key and the Query mark is located -- and that makes him more readable and understandable than a lot of us.  I'ts not bad to use proper grammar -- it just helps us be better understood.  Now if you guys could get him to rewrite the MC rules . . .
