RMax Club Membership provides constant communication between members and Rotax officials. All competitors under the age of 18 must submit a copy of Birth Certificate or Passport with membership application. All ages are subject to verification by public records and any discrepancies will be corrected before membership is granted. Membership application will not be approved until birth certificate, and/or, passport is received. License Requirements All Rotax racers are eligible to hold US Rotax License/Membership. For participation in National Level events, i.e. US Grand Nationals, only US Citizens and Permanent Residents are eligible. |
