To Clarify the 4 ride rule in the 7 class, you are allowed one ride on a team drawn from entered riders for the draw teams, you are not required to have any other entries in the 7 class to be eligible to ride on a draw team, but you must indicate to Kim by 8PM on the Tuesday prior to the show that you will let your name stand for the draw.
