INDEMNIFICATIONI DECLARE THAT:I have been given the opportunity to read the General Regulations of the Motor Sports Association and, if any, the Supplementary

Regulations for this event and agree to be bound by them.

I declare that I am physically and mentally fit to take part in the event and I am competent to do so.

I acknowledge that I understand the nature and type of the competition and the potential risk inherent with motor sport and agree to

accept that risk.

I understand that motorsport can be dangerous and accidents causing death, injury, disability and property damage can and do happen.

I understand that these risks may give rise to my suffering personal injury or other loss and I acknowledge and accept these risks.

In consideration of the acceptance of this entry I agree that neither any one of or any combination of the MSA and its associated clubs,

the organisers, the track owners or other occupiers, the promoters and their respective officers, servants, representatives and agents

(the “Parties”) shall have any liability for loss or damage which may be sustained or incurred by me as a result of participation in the

Event including but not limited to damage to property, economic loss, consequential loss or financial loss howsoever caused.

Nothing in this clause is intended to or shall be deemed to exclude or limit liability for death or personal injury.

To the fullest extent permitted by law I agree to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Parties in respect of any loss or damage

whatsoever and howsoever arising from my participation in this event.

I declare that to the best of my belief the driver(s) possess(es) the standard of competence necessary for an event of the type to which

this entry relates and that the vehicle entered is suitable and roadworthy for the event having regard to the course and the speeds which

will be reached.

under the Supplementary Regulations issued for this event and the General Regulations of the MSA.’

As the Parent/Guardian ‘I confirm that I have acquainted myself and the minor with the MSA General Regulations, agree to pay any

appropriate charges and fees pursuant to those Regulations (to include any appendices thereto) and hereby agree to be bound by those

Regulations and submit myself without reserve to the consequences resulting from those Regulations (and any subsequent alteration

thereof). Further, I agree to pay as liquidated damages any fines imposed upon me up to the maxima set out in Part 3, Appendix 1.

I understand that should I at the time of this event be suffering from any disability whether permanent or temporary which is likely to

affect prejudicially my normal control of my vehicle, I may not take part unless I have declared such disability to the ASN which has,

following such declaration, issued a licence which permits me to do so.

I undertake that at the time of the event to which this entry relates I shall have passed or am exempt from an ASN specified medical

examination within the specified period.’ (H.10.1.6).

I have read and fully understood the Procedure for Control of Drugs and Alcohol as contained in the Competitors’ and Officials’

(www.ukad.org.uk and www.wada-ama.org) in particular the UK Anti Doping Rules which have been adopted by the MSA. Further, if I

am counter-signing as the Parent or Guardian of a minor then in addition to the deemed consent to the testing of that minor (UKAD

Code Art 5.6.2) I hereby confirm that I give such consent for the minor concerned to be so tested.

I hereby agree to abide by the MSA Child Protection Policy and Guidelines and the National Sporting Code of Conduct.
