I agree to appropriately use all required stickers, decals and patches and I understand that failure to do so will result in loss of points and forfeiture of all money and awards for the event. 5. I agree that all decisions of WISSOTA race officials, or track officials, regarding the interpretation and application of the WISSOTA rules, and the scoring of positions, shall be non-litigable. I further covenant and agree that I will not initiate any type of legal action against WISSOTA, or a WISSOTA promoter, to challenge such decisions, to seek monetary damages, to seek injunctive relief or to seek any other kind of legal remedy. I understand that if I pursue any such legal action, which violates this provision, then I expressly agree to reimburse WISSOTA, or the WISSOTA promoter, for all of its attorney’s fees and costs in defending against such legal action. In addition, I understand and accept that if I violate this provision, and initiate any type of legal action against WISSOTA, or a WISSOTA promoter as described above, that my WISSOTA competitors license will be immediately suspended and I will not be allowed to race again in the current year. Also, I will not be issued a WISSOTA competitors license for a minimum of three (3) years from the date of the filing of such legal action. I also understand that the WISSOTA rule book expressly defines which decisions of race officials or WISSOTA officials can be appealed, and outlines the process by which the driver may appeal decisions by officials. 6.
