We've updated the Youth A class bike rule for the Fall series, since that class runs with the Pros and Experts who can ride 250cc 2-strokes we'll now be allowing Youth A riders to ride them as well.
The bike regulations for the Youth B and Youth C classes have not changed.

In order to be more in line with the age requirements with other organizations we've changed the Youth Class age definitions for this season. Now whatever age you were on January 1st is your NESC age. This applies to all the Youth Classes from the 50cc up to the Youth A.
