Race Time
As soon as possible after sign-ups close the Moto sheets will be posted in the area designated for that propose. Moto sheets will be in numerical order starting with Moto #1 and continuing through whatever is the last Moto number. In addition to being in numerical order the Moto sheets are grouped by age and class. Starting with the youngest and going to the oldest with Girls classes coming first followed by Cruiser, Boys and then Open.
Remember it is extremely important for you or your parents to check the Moto sheets before the races start. Make sure that you check everything on the Moto sheet , not just what Moto you are in and what your lanes are. If you find any mistakes go back to sign-ups and the crew can make any necessary corrections.
Now you have signed up for today's race, you have done your practicing, got your bike totally tuned in for the track and most important of all you have checked your MOTO sheets to make sure everything is correct. Its now time to start the racing. The races start with a flag lap and the playing of our National Anthem, this is your cue to head for staging.
The races are run in numerical order by Moto numbers. Each rider will have to race 3 times or rounds, always in the same Moto number. Normally we will race the first 2 rounds , take a short break and the race the third and final round.
Staging takes place behind the starting gate and you should be there at least 10 Moto's ahead of the one you are racing in. There will be a person called the Stager who will call out each Moto number, each riders name that is in that Moto and their starting lane assignments. The Stager will then direct you what to do next.
Starting Gate
Now you are on the starting gate. You know starting lane you are supposed to be in, but where is it? When you are standing on the gate looking out at the track lane #1 is on the same side of the gate that the first turn turns to. If the first turn is to the left then lane #1 is on the left side of the gate. There is 8 different starting lanes on the gate, with lane 8 being on the opposite end from lane #1.
The starting gate is run by a computer and has a set number of commands it must go through before it can be reset, the last of which is to drop the gate. If you are on the gate and the command have started there is no way to stop the gate from dropping.
There are Track Official's positioned at different places on the track. These official's can and will alter the outcome of a race because of fouls, riders missing obstacles, riders using inappropriate language on the track and any other unsportsman-like conduct. If a rider feels they were fouled they must go back to the track Official closest to where the foul was committed within 3 Moto's and register their complaint.
The finish line generally consist of 4 Finish Line Official's and 1 Chief Scorer. They are responsible for scoring each rider as they cross the finish line in each of their Moto's. If a rider fails to start a Moto or does not finish a Moto they will not be scored for that Moto. In all cases the decision of the Chief Scorer is final.
Trophies
For riders who have earned a Trophy they will generally be available during the third round of racing shortly after their Moto. Trophies will be handed out in the area of the track designated for that propose. Trophies will be given out based on the following :
2 riders in a class - 1 trophy
3 or 4 riders - 2 trophies
5 or more riders - 3 trophies
Check your Moto sheet to find the number of trophies in tour class.
