MEDICAL HELP !!
I just got an email from Jessica that I my medical expired. I found my= license and it does say it expired 3 days ago.
With the change of the medical rules, it should have been good for a few more years, but I did have it done under the old rules.
Do I have to get a new one? Jessica's email said I had to have it to race this weekend.
email Dave Ho at Nationals.
i'll look for his contact info.
how old are you? i'm 36. i got mine in 2004 and mine is good thru 2010.
I am 41 now... I was 39 when I got my medical.

its likely you will need to get this done.
be clear w/Dave about the situation, he may be able to allow you to slip thru for the weekend.
directly off the Med Form.
Renewals:
Applicants less than 40 years old must submit a new physical every five years or as required by their physician.
Applicants that are at least than 40 years old must renew their Medical Examination every three years.
Applicants that are at least than 50 years old must renew their Medical Examination every two years.
Applicants that are at least than 60 years old must renew their Medical Examination every 12 months.
you should have gotten a 5 year deal on yours.
Thanks...I emailed him.
Under the new rules it would have been good for a few more years.
Come on James. Don't be looking for an excuse to not be on track with me. I have been waiting a long long time. I've been reading the AG book on the art of racing and I think I'm ready.Quote:

I guess the part that required you have the FINGER test is gone from the form...so I didn't mind going to get it. :lol:
Does that mean you enjoyed the "cough"? :shock:Quote:

When the change came about, it allowed me to get an additional year on my medical. I contacted Ho and he promptly sent a new license to me.
Yep... I was about to panic, because the other Docs in her off were off today, but one came in to do paperwork and told her to have me come on up.Quote:
