Part of the process in obtaining a CAMS National/Provisional Circuit Licence involves a medical examination to determine if a competitor is fit to compete.

CAMS has recently completed a review of the medical standards governing the process involved in assessing cardiovascular risk. As a result, the CASA score has now been replaced with the CAMS CV Score Chart which is based on a updated study as reported by the Framingham Heart Study Group.

This has resulted in an up-to-date, clear and more simplified process where the emphasis is less reliant on multiple, various tests as previously required under the CASA Score. This in turn significantly reduces on-going costs to a competitor who is in good health.

The complete medical process is detailed here:  http://www.cams.com.au/content.asp?PageID=Competitors&ObjectID=53
