Are you angry about the late fee or the cut off date?
QLD enforced the cut off date 4 weeks out, but no late fee was needed because the cap was reached, WA and NSW didn't enforce the cut off date 4 weeks out, they left it a little longer, and had no late fee.
It's up to the club if they want to take entries within 4 weeks of the event or stop taking entries at 4 weeks out, and AARCMCC is not enforcing a late fee, it's at the clubs discretion to do so, as is enforcing the cut off 4 weeks out.
If your not packed out with 4 weeks to go its on your best interest to leave entry's open, on the flip side a late fee is a great reason for us racers to get our entries in on time.

I don't see what the big deal is... enter and pay on time or risk a late fee... I think its a good idea, helps clubs be more organised, encourages racers to be more organised...

The "Late entry fee" does not worry me at all, because i have always paid my fee on time, wherever i go to race, but this is a Sanctioned event and it is part of the National Series.
The event will run under the 2012 AARCMCC rules and not under our personal opinion.
Like it or dislike it, the rules are there for a reason, therefore would be nice if our SA State Delegate can just copy and paste, direct from the AARCMCC off road rules, the section that explain how and when the "Late entry fee" will be applicable.
Thank you

Thanks Marco nice to hear from an actual member of the club...
Yes it was just a question, no point, no anger, no big deal, JUST A QUESTION.
Shame when a question gets asked the usual mmi lynchmob come out with that crap... Very welcoming...

Neither of them were replying in any capacity of an MMI supported driver, I believe Foord was replying as an AARCMCC delegate and Glenn as an SDMCC member.
MMI works very hard to support and build our sport all over the country and its comments like that which undermine our efforts.
It would be appreciated if you reconsider what you posted and in future, if you feel the need to lay blame or be abusive, direct it in an appropriate direction - which is usually best not on the forum anyway.

If you guys would like further clarification on the late fee I'm sure Jarrod would gladly provide that.
If you can't confirm when you are able to attend an Event 4 weeks out then there is a simple procedure to follow
1. Pay your $60 entry fee
2. Notify the club that you may not be able to attend the event
3.when you figure out that you can/cannot attend then email the club notifying them that you will be racing OR notifying them to refund your entry fee.
Pretty easy of you ask me, nobody has to pay a late fee at all, even if u are not sure if u can attend, contact the host club! They are more than likely able to help you out and organise a refund if you ultimately cannot make it.
Cheers, member of SDMCC

Wow! How one question can get so much attention...
What's not surprising is get the sponsor involved then the driver becomes much friendlier. It works in the real world and the RC world
Sorry Darren if you think my remark was slanderous but if you give drivers an RC sponsorship then they post on an RC forum then they do represent you and their comments do reflect on your business.
Remember how I wrote don't worrie about it if your going to get all shirty? Offer still stands

Yes I do support these guys, but thats in their racing - this 'discussion' you are having with them has nothing to do with my support nor MMI - its about SDMCC and/or AARCMCC rules about late entries.
You take it upon yourself then to drag MMI into it. If it had anything to do with MMI or they were acting inappropriately on the forum then it may reflect - but so far the way I read it they are only answering your questions to the best of their knowledge.
Just because what they have to say doesn't suit you, doesn't mean they are behaving inappropriately.
Seems easy to me, nominate, pay your entry, race - no late fees even come into it.
If you have doubts contact the club, they may be able to help you out should you not be able to make it.
If you dont like the rules and think they need to be changed, the AGM is coming up and I'm sure there will be a place on the committee for you to contribute something positive.
You know where where I am, when you're around feel free to drop by and we'll discuss it over a couple of Breugems beers (I know where he hides them)

Darren if the club wants to run the meet to the letter of the aarcmacc rules then that's fine. Now that it has been explained I'm quite happy with it. Though I still don't get why it says aarcmacc will be policing it when the state delegate didn't even know about it?
What gets on people's goat is when you ask a question, just a question and people try to read into it or turn it around as if your trying to start something...
You can spin doctor it around as much as you like but it's on the thread now people will make up there own mind...
+1 if your against cyber bullying....
