Team USA Selection Procedures

Updated 6/26/06

A letter of intent PDF document (pdf) and $60.00 fee is required from each rider who wishes to qualify for Team USA. The Letter of Intent and fee must be received prior to the first qualifier entered by the rider.

The riders who earn a qualified position on the team to represent the United States in the 2006 ISDE must confirm with the AMA their ability to go by July 14, 2006. The 2006 ISDE team will be announced as early as possible after that date.

The teams will be selected based on the combined results of the rider’s best two qualifier events. You must ride both days of a qualifier to receive a score (combining scores of both days at each event). FIM ISDE type evaluation or eval scoring will be used at ISDE Qualifiers, the class leader will receive a “0” score and everyone else will get a “0+” score based upon how many seconds they are behind the leader.

Up to two (2) of the ten (10) positions available on the Trophy and Junior teams and up to two (2) of the Club/Senior/Womens teams may be selected by the ISDE Advisory Committee. The remainder of the open positions will be selected based on the qualifying process below.

  • Rider will be eligible to participate on only one team.
  • The qualifying riders will move up to the next qualifying position in the selection process as slots become available.
  • For the purposes of qualifying, the three (3) FIM displacement classes will be used to determine eligibility. For the Senior and Women’s classes any displacement size may qualify.
  • The FIM requires that the Trophy teams have entries in all three (3) Displacement class. The Junior Trophy team must have riders in at least two (2) displacement classes.

The open positions on the six (6) person Trophy Team will be selected based on the best two (2) overall evaluation scores for the open positions.

The open positions on the four (4) person Junior Team will be selected based on the best two (2) overall evaluation scores for riders who are under 23 years of age or who will be 23 years old in the year of competition.

The top 7* finishing (lowest eval score) riders in each displacement class will be selected for the Club Teams. The top three (3) Senior riders, based on the best two (2) overall eval finishes, 40 years of age as of the date of the event will serve as Senior Club Team members.

If participation warrants a Women’s Club Team the top three (3) riders based on the best two (2) overall eval finishes will serve as Women’s Club Team members.

100cc – 125cc – 2 stroke
175cc – 250cc – 4 stroke

The use of horns, lights, brake lights, mirrors and side stands, will not be required at the qualifiers but WILL BE REQUIRED AT THE ISDE. Local sound requirements will be enforced at the qualifiers, the maximum sound level for the ISDE will be 94 db(A) measured at 20".

* Due to the large number of entries from FIM member countries, the ISDE organizer has limited the number of Club Teams to 9. This includes 7 Club Teams, the Senior and Women’s Club Team’s.

Travel Package

AMA Travel & Tours,  the Official Tour Provider for Team USA, has assembled a complete travel package to the ISDE.

Attention LOI Riders

If you make the 2006 ISDE team and want to receive an Arai helmet, courtesy of Arai, then you MUST wear an Arai helmet at the qualifiers.

We will have a tech person at each qualifier who will verify that you are wearing an Arai helmet.

If you do not wear an Arai helmet you will not receive one of the “team” helmets provided by Arai. You should note your helmet provider on your LOI form and be sure the helmet you use in the ISDE is painted using the correct USA colors and paint scheme.

If you have any questions, please contact us.

Thanks to our sponsors:
