The first order of business was the Insurance report by Pete Lyon. The bottom line here
is that a fairly significant increase in premiums will be required next year due almost
entirely to losses in the rally/solo areas. We continue to have concerns with out of
control vehicles at Solo events particularly at the finish line area. This fact gives great
emphasis to the necessity of Safety Stewards making sure that events are conducted in
complete compliance with our safety requirements, with special emphasis on the
location of finish lines at solo events, and spectator control at all solo and rally events.[/b]
