There was an accident last year due to a front end situation. The feeling is that we need to make sure that the cars are more ready to go before they can run. The checklist that is signed by the driver states that they are ready to run.

Liability was discussed for situations like this and if this situation would have been worse. It was noted that we should form a committee to get a list ready for the next run. We should start with the MTFCA list and use the safety related items for our checklist. There was a motion to have an abbreviated checklist in addition to the inspection and the driver has to sign it or have another driver sign it. That was seconded. The motion was amended by removing the “or have another driver sign it” section. That was seconded and approved. The motion was seconded and approved as amended.
