| Annual Membership |
Page Number: 19 |
| In order to establish and hold an official divisional or national E.T. or M.P.H. record,
all owners and all drivers of each boat must hold current fully paid annual racing memberships in the sanctioning division or chapter and comply with all rules and regulations set forth in this rule book. Memberships must be paid prior to setting any record. A single event member who sets what would otherwise have been either an E.T. or M.P.H. record will not be permitted to become an annual racing member “after the fact” in order to claim the record |

| Fuel/Oil/Water Samples |
Page Number: 19 |
| No record will be approved if the gasoline, alcohol, nitromethane mixture, water (from
the water injection system if so equipped), or engine lubricating oil is found to be illegal, or if no sample was obtained as the boat came out of the water after either the record leg run or backup run. No sample is required for a backup run if it preceded the actual record leg, but did not exceed the existing record. It is the driver’s responsibility to stay on the ramp or the immediate vicinity thereof and get his fuel, oil, and water checked. A more detailed explanation can be found under “Racing Fuels / Fuel Samples.” |
