Page Number: 4 |
| The participant agrees that by entering a sanctioned event, he acknowledges that the event site is safe and suitable for racing, and he further acknowledges that by participating in the event, he may suffer bodily injury or death, or loss or damage to property. The participant further acknowledges that he has voluntarily assumed the risk of such losses and waives any claims for such losses against NDBA, as well as the sanctioning division or chapter, their Directors, officers, officials, other participants, event sponsors, event promoters, race track owners and/or operators, other event officials, other member divisions or chapters, their Directors and officers, together with all agents and designees, and discharges such persons from responsibility for such losses, and covenants not to sue such persons for such losses. All participants shall be required, as a condition of participation, to sign all required entry forms, including such releases as shall be required by the sanctioning division or chapter. For purposes of this rule book, the term participant shall include any person directly or indirectly associated with any vehicle or boat which has been permitted to enter a sanctioned event site for the purpose of competition, including, but not limited to owners, drivers, and crew members.
NDBA, AS WELL AS THE SANCTIONING DIVISION OR CHAPTER, MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS, OR EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, THAT COMPLIANCE WITH THE RULES AND REGULATIONS PUBLISHED IN THIS RULE BOOK, OR PUBLISHED DURING THE COURSE OF THE YEAR IN ANY OTHER PUBLICATION, WILL PREVENT OR GUARANTEE AGAINST INJURY OR DEATH TO PARTICIPANTS OR SPECTATORS OR DAMAGES TO PERSONAL PROPERTY. These rules and regulations constitute the minimum accepted standards for competition and are intended only as a guide for the conduct of the sport. Safety is the responsibility of equipment manufacturers, builders, and participants in the event.
Those participating in any sanctioned event, who elect to leave property at said event site(s) for themselves and/or on behalf of any and all owners of such property, release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue NDBA or the sanctioning division or chapter, their Directors, officers, officials, event sponsors, event promoters, race track owners and/or operators, employees, or representatives from and for all liability to the participant(s) and owners of the property, their fiduciaries, personal representatives, assigns, successors, heirs, legatees, devisees, next of kin, and all others for any and all loss or damage, and all claims or demands which may be made on account of loss or damage to any property of the participant or owner, or property of others entrusted to the participant or owner. This provision applies while the subject property is located at a sanctioned event site incidental to a sanctioned event.
