Congratulations to our 2007 SEP Super Test winners:
1st Place Jacob Pendergast, Prairie Drifters
2nd Place Jeff Lindberg, Riverbend Benders Snowmobile Club/Wauconda Snowmobile Club
3rd Place Forrest Smith, I&M Trail Council
What is the IASC Super Test? It is a test developed and administered by the IASC as a benefit to our member students. It contains over 200 questions, with a possible score of over 300 points. The test is revised and updated annually. The questions go beyond the IDNR safety class questions. They are designed to test the student's knowledge of snowmobile safety, ethics, courtesy, routine maintenance, first aid, rules of the road, riding techniques and other related topics. Also, some questions will be about the IASC and articles in the Illinois Snowmobiler pertaining to snowmobile rules, regulation changes, etc. In cases of a tie, there is an essay question of 100 words or less. The test takes 1 to 1 1/2 hours to complete.
Students with the top three scores are awarded prizes, which are donated by the Yamaha Motor Corporation. First prize is a complete snowmobile outfit; second and third prizes consist of lesser amounts of snowmobile clothing. The top three students and their immediate families will be guests of the IASC at the annual Convention Brunch, where they will receive their awards from Yamaha and the IASC.
Who is Eligible? All children of IASC club or associate members who are residents of Illinois are eligible if:
- you took and passed the IDNR Safety Class between September 2007 and March 2008, and
- you will be 12 years of age and have not reached their 16th birthday by November 1, 2008
- apply and take the Super Test which will be given in the Spring of 2008
