Revised 03/28/2008
Here are
the Final Revised AMRA Rules for the 2008
Series. The AMRA Board has done its best to
keep ALL the Classes as Consistent,
Competitive,
Impartial, and just as possible for
all the racers & race fans (for those who
stood with us since the beginning, those who
are racing today, and those who race with us
next year and the future years to come).
We have
heard your comments, requests, and
suggestions. The AMRA Board has consulted
with many technical officials, engine
builders, racers, other racing associations,
and other knowledgeable people to make these
rules as accurate & consistent to the best
of our ability. We will continue a
whole-hearted effort to keep this sport that
we all love growing for the future.
Please
enjoy the season and Let’s ALL Have Some! This is why we started this association and,
hopefully, that’s why you have joined to
race with us in The American Mud Racing
Association. Because YOU Are the
Association We Call the AMRA.

Class
Rules
YOU ARE
EXPECTED TO KNOW THE RULES.
IGNORANCE OF THE RULES IS NOT AN EXCUSE!
The rules and/or regulations set forth
herein are designed to provide for the
orderly conduct of racing events and to
establish minimum acceptable requirements
for such events. These rules shall govern
the condition of all events, and by
participating in these events, all
participants are deemed to have complied
with these rules.
NO EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF SAFETY SHALL RESULT FROM
PUBLICATIONS OF, OR COMPLIANCE WITH, THESE
RULES AND/OR REGULATIONS. They are intended
as a guide for conduct of the sport and are
in no way a guarantee against injury or
death to a participant, spectator, or
official.
The AMRA and Track Officials shall be
empowered to permit reasonable and
appropriate deviation from any of the
specifications herein or impose any further
restrictions that in their opinion do not
alter the minimum acceptable requirements.
NO EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF SAFETY
SHALL RESULT FROM SUCH ALTERATION OF
SPECIFICATIONS. Any interpretation or
deviation of these rules is left to the
discretion of the officials. Their decision
is final.
The rules set forth shall be effective for
AMRA 2008 racing season. The AMRA reserves
the right to amend, alter, suspend, delete,
or supplement these rules as conditions
warrant and without any prior notice. Any
changes will be posted on www.IRACEMUD.com.
It is your responsibility to be aware of
changes posted. These rules shall govern the
condition of all AMRA events.
Mud Racing is a competitive sport, and, like
any other sporting event, it depends on fan
support. There is also a great deal of
showmanship and public relations required.
Starting on time, running events in a
professional manner, proper uniforms or
attire, race trucks brightly painted and the
conduct of the competitors both on and off
the track must be established.
AMRA sanctioned events are held on private
property. Any person on this property
without the permission of the track owners
or AMRA is guilty of trespassing and subject
to the penalties prescribed by law. Through
your truck registration, you have been given
the authority and the right to be on this
property in conjunction with your mud racing
activity only. However, the track owners of
the race track and the AMRA reserves the
right to revoke and cancel this authority at
any time it is felt that your presence or
conduct is not in the best interest of mud
racing, your fellow competitors, the fans,
management, or officials of the AMRA.
Although every effort has been directed
toward complete, understandable, and correct
rules, as well as the same factors in
putting them into print, the AMRA cannot
possibly anticipate every situation,
circumstance, or interpretation.
The definition of ‘OEM/Stock’ means ‘No
Modifications to Factory Parts or Factory
Specifications’.
