RIP Mark Sullivan

Today we lost a great man, Mark Sullivan passed away after a long hard fought battle with Leukemia, he was surrounded by his loving family including his son, Seamus who I'm sure many of you know.
Mark started racing back in the 80's and rose up the NESC ranks to become a top NESC expert as well as a friend to everyone in the pits, always willing to lend a hand to a fellow racer.
As it always happens life got in the way and Mark quit racing to concentrate on his construction business. He married Maryann, the love of his life and they had four great kids.
After a few years Seamus got the itch to go racing and he and his dad made quite a team as Seamus worked his way up the ranks, winning championship after championship along the way including the two NESC Pro class titles this fall.
Mark was also active in Foxboro town politics serving a few terms as a selectman. He even wrote a book about that experience.

Updated: Tuesday 10/29/2024 Mark Sullivan’s funeral will be held this Saturday, November 2nd at 11:00 AM at Saint Mary’s church, 176 Washington St. East Walpole, MA the church parking lot is fairly small but there is some on street parking on Washington St and some of the side streets such as Rhodes Ave and June St.⁠

⁠ The church service should last about an hour, afterwards if you'd like to grab some lunch there are lots of possibilities in the area.⁠ Including some restaurants on this Google Map http://bit.ly/4foKB6o⁠

⁠ Followed by a celebration of life at 2:00PM until about 8:00PM at the CRRA - Donald Cotter Recreation Hall, 68 Mill St. Foxboro, MA. out back, behind the pool around their fire pit. Please bring your own chairs.⁠

⁠ His family has requested that you bring your favorite photo of Mark to the service.⁠

⁠ Mark's obituary is here

Promotional points rule update for 2023

PP-1 Promotional points are accumulated per rider, not per class and they are accumulated from year to year.
A promotion to the next classification is given at the conclusion of a series if the rider has earned the proper number of points and is age eligible.
Riders moving up a class will start the class with the number of points earned to advance.
The only exception is for riders advancing two classifications. i.e. C to A, Youth C to Youth A. These riders will have their points reset to the lowest point of advancement to the next classification.
Ex: A C rider with over 120 points will be reset to a B rider with 40 points, Youth C with over 65 points will be reset to 40 points as a Youth B rider. In no case will a rider move up two classes at the end of a series.

Attention new members

New youth members need to give the NESC the notarized short legal release before you can earn championship points, without this release on file your membership is not finalized.

75% of the races needed to qualify for year end awards

Each of the NESC Championship series are designed to reward rider's accomplishments and their support of the NESC points paying events.

At the end of the year a Championship awards program is run to recognize the top riders in each championship class for each series that earn championship points. Riders must do at least 75% of the races in a series in order to qualify for awards.
For the 2023 fall series all of the adult class riders need to do 7 races
In the 65cc, 85cc and Supermini riders need to do 5 races
50cc riders will need to have raced in 4 races.

Series scoring, how throw aways work

For most of the classes (except for the 50cc 6 out of 7, 65cc, 85cc and supermini 9 out of 10) your best 11 out of 12 races will count in the championship points standings.

If you completely miss one day then you accumulate “0” points for that day and “0” are subtracted from your final total.

If you miss no race days, then your lowest score is subtracted from your final total.

If you are disqualified from a class for any reason (whether it is for one moto or both motos), then the total score for that class on that day will not be allowed to be counted as a throwaway day.

All riders, please bring your cards to sign-up

Please bring your NESC card, your ID and your insurance card with you to sign-up. We hate to be requiring all this but the insurance companies are getting stricter and stricter with their rules, sorry for the hassle and thank you for understanding and helping out.
