CEMAR Classic European Motocross Assosiation of Riders Date: Nov. 15, 2012 Issued by C. Garver News 2013
November 10, 2012 an international OLT/JST/CETSC AGM was held in Gremersdorf, Germany.
This is a presentation of the news 2013 and other questions which were brought up.
See details in “OLT Regulations 2012-2014” which you CAN find on
http://www.classicmx.se.
CEMAR
The OLT, JST and CETSC organization has, until now, not had a common name.
It was decided to adopt the name CEMAR, which stands for Classic European Association of Riders.
Members
Three new members: Flemming Vad, DK replaces Niels-Erik Mogensen, DK. Boje Christiansen SE
replaces Anders J Beltin, SE and Oost Oostra BE was elected as a new member. A warm welcome to
Flemming, Boje and Oost, and a most hearty thanks to the resigning members for the work they have
done during their time as members in the group!
Accomplishment of race
In cases when a rider’s driving style is considered to be unfair or dangerous it is primary to be
handled the usual way by actual organizer/sport commissioner, at the same time as CEMAR
requests the riders to behave sportsmanlike and safe just like it is said in § 1 in the regulations!
Rider’s safety
High lighting of the regulations:”The rider must have a valid license, the “European Health Insurance
Card” and additionally to that have a personal insurance covering up in cases where the license
connected insurance is not sufficient, ex. at some races abroad. It is important that the riders apply for
their participation in foreign races to their own federation, ex. Germany DMSB, The Netherlands
KNMV, Sweden SVEMO, Denmark DMU. Questions? Contact your CEMAR country representative,

http://www.classicmx.seNew – EVO CUP
During 2012, at the same time as the OLT JST CETSC races, 3 races Pré -90/EVO have, for the
purpose of evaluation, taken place as a race of the day only = no summing up. From 2013 these races
will be established as the ”EVO CUP” over 4 races per year.
See the regulations on
www.classicmx.seAdministration work
It all started in 2008 with OLT. At that time the administration work was limited and possible to
handle by one person. Now the JST and CETSC have joined in, and a new class is on the way in.
Therefore a form of activity is drawn up where responsibility and work is splitted up between the
board members. All board members now represent all classes: OLT, JST, CETSC and EVO CUP.

http://www.classicmx.se to find your country responsible representative.
Jury and technical staff at the races
Up to now there have been three rider’s representatives per class selected to participate in the jury
meetings. This has, gradually, with added classes got rather difficult to handle. Therefore the number
of rider’s jury representatives is reduced to one per class, and the number of technical representatives
to the scruteneering, from the riders, is reduced from two to one per class.
Camping, toilets and showers at the races
The regulations sais that”Event toilets and showers must be free of charge and based on No. of riders
and visitors and be open Friday – Monday”. “Camping” and that “Electricity can be charged extra but
only if the rider requests connection to the organizer’s electrical power system” will be added to the
paragraph.
OLT and JST, extended with a 4:th race 2013.
Wishes have been exposed from riders and organizers to have four races in OLT/JST like CETSC has.
An inquiry was made at the 47-years Race in Linköping. 31 OLT/JST-riders were asked, 90, 3 % gave
a positive answer to a 4:th race = OLT/JST will be extend to four races per year.
Challenge Cup OLT 60+
The challenge cup, founded 2008, was won 2012 for the 3:rd time by Heikki Nurminen SF. By that the
cup permanently goes to him. For 2013 a new cup is given by the family Gunilla and Jan Isgren, SE.
Priority starting numbers
In an earlier AGM it was decided that the riders should have the right to use their total position from
last year as starting number the current year = Priority Starting Number. This has turned out to be very
difficult to handle. Therefore, from 2013, it is changed to apply to the 5 first positions per class, and
for the first race of the year only.
NOTE! It is important that the riders keep a once used starting number throughout the other races of
the year (for the total result), and to strictly have the number plate/numbers according to the valid
regulations!
Updating of the Regulations for 2013
OLT, JST, CETSC, EVO CUP
It is allowed to use/build in ignition system of later design.
Suspension components
Assessor springs/valves (ex. Race Tech) are allowed. External adjustment of the suspension’s gas/
hydraulic is not allowed. for OLT, JST and CETSC
CETSC, EVO CUP
If the engine is approved with Reed Valves, it is allowed to use valves of later design, ex. V-Force3.
125cc: The cylinder diameter can be bored up from original factory bore to max 2 mm oversize piston.
Penalty points CETSC
The use of penalty points in CETSC continues 2013.
Penalty points can be used the first time the rider participates in the CETSC only. The deviation must
thereafter be corrected and the rider must inform himself about the valid regulations. The rider cannot
participate in CETSC with deviation a second time.
Starting fee
During the last years there have been raised requirements from the organizers to OLT, JST and
CETSC that the starting fee must be suited to current cost situation. ”It doesn’t work that these classes
have a considerable lower starting fee than the other classes” they say. Therefore the maximum
starting fee is suited to be € 40 for a one day race and € 65 for a two days race from 2013.
