Upgrading Procedure 30. Competitors wishing to collect signatures for upgrading their competition licence must use the Upgrade Card. For the Upgrade Card to be valid it must be signed in ink and must bear a passport type photograph of the holder, which must be permanently fixed to the Upgrade Card in the space provided. lf you want to upgrade your licence on renewal and you have met the Upgrading criteria detailed in this section, please forward your completed 2009 Competition Licence Application Form together with the appropriate licences and/or Upgrade Card containing the signatures and the required payment to the Licence Section. If you want to upgrade your licence and you are already in possession of a current 2009 Competition Licence, please detach and complete the white licence amendment card contained in the Year Book and forward it, together with your 2009 Competition Licence and any other appropriate licences and/or Upgrade Card containing the necessary signatures with the required payment to the Licence Section. The payment is calculated as the difference between the cost of the existing licence and the new licence plus the upgrading fee as detailed in Appendix 3. A request for an upgrading signature has to be made to the organisers, and if the results of the event show that the driver’s performance was satisfactory, his/her Upgrade Card will be signed by the Clerk of the Course in the space provided. In the case of Kart Races, only the MSA Steward of the Meeting is empowered to sign and only one signature per meeting is permitted, (Kart Endurance or Kart Tyro signatures are not accepted to upgrade a Kart Race Licence). A maximum of two signatures may be obtained at a car race meeting. In exceptional circumstances only, documentary evidence, such as printed official results sheets may be accepted as proof of performance for upgrading. Results which predate the competitors last upgrade will only be accepted where the total number of results obtained is sufficient to meet the upgrade criteria from the basic competition licence for that discipline to that being sought.
