Jarred , you previously only really needed a national A for some Fia sanctioned events... spa francorchamps etc

I agree. I've only ever needed a National B. Bit wierd how single seaters are excluded. Has this been decided? All i can see is that it was up for consolation at the MSA meetings?

Thank you all.
If I can finish one more race (so pending my gearbox habit) I'll be sorted for next year.
Sean- you can also get a signature for being a Marshall for a day if your desperate.
Best, Jarred

From the MSA bulletin it appears to be decided from 1/1/17.
Single seaters already have the rule in place but at 0.5bhp/kg (wierd mixed units...)
The MSA have accepted alternative evidence of competence in the past such as result sheets, etc.

Sean,

I don't think you need to do 6 more races, just prove that you've successfully completed 6. I believe they accept results sheets if you don't have the actual signature.

If you are going for signatures don't forget that it's a maximum of two per meeting.

I will give them a call. Had my licence since 2012 pretty sure I can find six results sheets somewhere and see what they say. However all the wording says it needs to be an upgrade card with photo attached now.

Just an update on this for anyone else this may affect. Spoken with the Msa and it seems they have seen sense, I can just send results sheets in as others suggested, making the wording about the upgrade card essentially useless.

That's good - and is in line with their established practice over a number of years.
