WERA, the premier motorcycle club racing organization in the country, is instituting an incentive program for both new and current riders. And considering the state of motorcycle road racing in this country, any effort to boost grid sizes is a good one.

The program rewards any current rider who brings a new rider to a WERA roadracing with a $75.00 credit toward their racing expenses. In return, the new rider will receive their first WERA Competition License for $60.00 (this is a $50.00 discount) and if they take a WERA Rider’s School they will get 20% ($20.00) off their school. For any rider on the fence about whether or not to join, this is an excellent savings on an otherwise expensive sport.

WERA’s first round of the season gets underway this weekend, January 25 – 26 at NOLA in Louisiana with a double header event. NOLA is offering Friday practice with a discount to licensed WERA Riders. For those on the west coast, February 8 – 9 will be the first round of the WERA West Sportsman Series presented by Lucas Oil, featuring the Kenny Anderson F3 and EZ-Up C Superstock Novice Classes – Racersedge.com will offer Friday practice for this event. Then the month rounds out with Talladega GP on February 22 – 23.

The 2014 Schedule is currently 95% firm and posted, as is the 2014 rulebook. Pre-entry is back to fax mode for now as we work on getting code written and finding a new payment service. The fax is (770)720-5015. Entry fees for 2014 are on the web site. Please check the WERA Forum (BBS) for updates, etc.
