Also important was attendance at the weekly meetings held every Sunday evening in their own club house, payments of due ($1.00 per week), and purchase of the club jacket. As a member you had to abide certain rules or expulsion from the club could result. For instance, any member caught dragging on public streets or highways could be suspended. Drinking at car shows or at club meetings was also prohibited by an article it the Cut Outs' by-laws. On top of these restrictions to membership, the club reserved the right to fine any member for speeding, racing, or dragging. Ticket could not exceed $1.00 per mile-per-hour violation, and any person getting such a ticket would automatically have his jacket and plaque suspended for a period of 21 days.
