Section A2 page 58 Ama Rulebook “ 15. Failing to immediately respect and comply with operational or warning flags/lights or other signals from racing officials.”
Yes we all can agree J-mart jumped while he lights were on and didn’t adhere to the rules but literally there is no saying in the rule book as to what the penalty will be for said offense. It just lists this penalty as punishable but there is no set punishment.
How can the AMA not have set penalties for different offenses. Not that this is the first time we’re discussing this but I just find it hard to take them seriously when it seems like a club making up random penalties when sometimes the same penalty wasn’t as severe in the past. 7 points is huge.
Thoughts?

The Shop
1) because they wrote the rule book!
2) well....because they write the rules!
That leaves a lot of opening for error and interpretation
