Monticello, NY --- The North American Amateur Drivers Association (NAADA) will host the 2008 World Cup of Amateur Driving, and although the events are still a long way off, NAADA president, Joe Faraldo is beginning to plan an itinerary for the countries that will participate.
Joe Faraldo (Monticello Raceway) We last hosted the World Cup of Amateur Racing in 1988, and it was a huge success because of the high quality of the competitors, Faraldo said. Some of the competing amateurs had as many as 2000 European wins.

Faraldo already has commitments from Balmoral Park and Maywood Park to host competitions, and he is seeking -- though not limiting -- participation from Yonkers Raceway, Monticello Raceway, Freehold Raceway, and The Meadowlands, racetracks that hosted legs of the 1988 World Cup.

According to Faraldo, up to 16 countries will participate, including Australia and New Zealand, and all the amateurs will compete in six races.

The World Cup is raced under the auspices of the Federation Europeenne des Gentleman Amateurs et Cavaliers du Trot (FEGAT), and at least 50 percent of the World Cup races in the United States next year must be conducted on the trot.

Drivers in the World Cup will be matched to their horses by lot, and no horse shall be assigned to a driver.

We have the cooperation of the United States Trotting Association, and all drivers in the World Cup will be of A license caliber, Faraldo added.

We await notification of the name of your driver representative for the
World Cup to be held in May 2008 in Chicago and NY/NJ.

Please advise well in advance of the date. Also, prepare at your earliest convenience some background materials on the representative chosen. Also, a statement that the driver is in good standing is necessary along with a head shot from the shoulders up and in the drivers colors sent to faral@thorn.net.

The cost of all participants will be calculated shortly and the bank wire info will also be provided.
Besides that the USTA needs to be notified at var m = String.fromCharCode(109,97,105,108,116,111)+':';var e = 'chip'+String.fromCharCode(64)+'ustrotting'+String.fromCharCode(46)+'com';document.writeln(''+e+'');chip@ustrottingcom so that a US credential can be issued or the driver may be prohibited from competing.
The info they need is name address, age # of wins etc.
Also, NY requires an eye examination of all drivers so that needs to be sent to the USTA as well and it will go on the credential issued.
