Most places require a tether cord. some places require MX boots and nerf bars. and every place requires a helmet.... I dont know what else to tell you. Yellow flag caution, red flag stop etc. I'm sure you already know that heh.

There is a Texas Quad MX series and you need to get hold of them to find out what there dates and what they require at there races.

I would think that they will require nerf bars on any MX track. It is a good idea to have them if you are racing MX and TT. If will save you feet and engine when you crash in a corner with some other rider.

Try getting in contact with the AMA (American Motorcyclist Association). Copies of the rule book may be purchased for $3 by contacting the AMA Product Sales Department at (614) 856-1900, ext. 1272. They also print a copy of the rules every year in the March issue of their magazine.
