Participants will line up on their assigned starting row in accordance with our official staging procedure.  40 minutesprior to each race, at Race Commander’s discretion, maycall up riders individually to pick/reserve starting positions.

NO RACER OR RACER PARENTshould walk up to the line to reserve a spot until their name is called. 

First moto’s will be announced according to point standings and second moto’s will be announced according to first moto results. 

Both staging announcements will go back 5 placesand after the TOP 5, it will be first come first serve to all remaining riders in class. 

TOP 10 are ONLY called for Pro Class both moto’s.

Classes that share one row will be called in alternating order.

Bikes are not permitted on the starting line during the staging procedure.  

The rows will always have signage so that each participant can easily find which row they start on. No bike is permitted on the starting line until they have gone through Tech Inspection and are authorized.

The rider’s meeting will be on the starting line before the start of each race. All-important track updates will be announced at the riders meeting. All participants are responsible for attending.

The Race Commanderwill lift the green flag (7-10) seconds before the start of each race. When the green flag is dropped only the front wave (row) of riders will start their bikes and begin the race. This process will continue every minute until all the remaining waves are gone.

Riders who accidentally or intentionally leave on a starting row ahead of their correct starting row will be penalized.

Riders who accidentally leave on a starting row behind their correct starting row will not be disqualified but their results will not be adjusted for their time lost.

Pee Wee Starting Procedure- Pee Wee Sr will have a standard dead engine start.  All other Pee Wee classes will be engine running

The A250/AVet class line will be row number 2 on all odd number rounds, followed by the A200/A Open class line on row 3. Even number rounds will switch with the A200/A Open class being row number 2, followed by A250/AVet on row 3. This is the only rotating class starting order

Scoring will be done with the transponder method. Each rider will have a transponder under the visor of his or her helmet and a class specific sticker on the back of the helmet.

Riders are required to slow down while going through the scoring lanes. It is the rider’s responsibility to know his or her number at all times. It is the racers responsibility to place their racing number clearly on the bikes number panels, left chin and back of helmet (unobstructed by goggle straps).

It is highly recommended to have the correct number on your bike, and to cover any unused numbers.

 Scoring checkpoints are “no passing zones”.  Riders may pass if a rider crashes in front of them or if a lapped rider gives the lead rider space to do so.

 The scoring area entrance will be marked with two orange cones to indicate the NO PASSING ZONE!

 Riders will be penalized 45 seconds if they make a pass on a competitor in the scoring lane

Results are determined from the participants combined score of both moto results. They are then added together and the rider with the lower total wins. For example, a rider who wins both moto’s 1 + 1 = has a total of 2.  

If (2) riders have a total score that ties.  The rider who places lower in the second moto will win the tiebreaker and receive the lower overall position.

Individual class results will be posted on paper in the general vicinity of the registration area. Riders have (30 minutes) to file a protest to the Registration Trailer after the results have been posted.

In the result of a tie in championship points, the rider with more overall wins from the championship season will take the win.  If the riders also tie in the number of wins, the rider with more second place finishes will win the tiebreaker. This pattern will continue until the tie is broken. If the riders also tie in overall wins and race finishes, he or she that scores more points in the final round will win the tiebreaker.

Off-Road Advancement System

• General

  • Riders will receive advancement points for participation in all AMA-sanctioned Enduro, Hare Scrambles, Desert Scrambles, Cross Country, Grand Prix, Hare and Hound (or any similar activity) meets. AMA riders advance from one classification to the next through their successful participation in AMA-sanctioned meets.

  • Advancement points will be calculated from Dec. 1st to Nov. 30th each year. Riders will be advanced effective Jan. 1st of the following year.

• Off-Road Performance Value (ORPV)

  • To be considered for advancement riders must have a minimum of six points-paying finishes within the rider’s classification. Race results that have a DNF, DNS overall finish or zero advancement points will not be used for calculating ORPV. Riders earn performance points based on their finishes at each meet according to the following:

  • Rider Advancement Points:

    • Finish Position:(Points 3-9 Participants), [Points 10-19 Participants], {Points 20+ Participants}

      • 1: (16), [20], {25}

      • 2: (14), [18], {23}

      • 3: (12), [16], {22}

      • 4: (10), [14], {20}

      • 5: (8), [13], {18}

      • 6: (6), [12], {16}

      • 7: (4), [11], {14}

      • 8: (2), [10], {13}

      • 9: (1), [9], {12}

      • 10: [8], {11}

      • 11: [7], {10}

      • 12: [6], {9}

      • 13: [5], {8}

      • 14: [4], {7}

      • 15: [3], {6}

      • 16: [2], {5}

      • 17: [1], {4}

      • 18: [1], {3}

      • 19: [1], {1}

      • 20: {1}

      • 21: {1}

      • 22: {1}

      • 23: {1}

      • 24: {1}

      • 25: {1}

    • *Example: A rider has 18 B classification entries. The rider earns 256points combined in 15 of those entries and no points in the otherthree. To calculate the ORPV the total points earned (256) are dividedby the total number of classification entries in which points wereearned (15). 256 divided by 15 = ORPV of 17.06. The rider’s ORPVof 17.06 exceeds the 15-point cutoff, and they are advanced to the Aclassification.

• B Classification Advancement

  • All B riders carrying an ORPV of 15 or higher at year-end will be advanced to the A classification.

  • Riders between the ages of 12 and 15 on Nov. 30th riding the B classification shall not be forced into the A classification regardless of how many B races or advancement points the rider has. Riders in this age group may advance based on their own ability/competence.

  • No rider, youth or amateur, can be forced to compete in the A class until Jan. 1 following their 16th birthday. A rider’s age for advancement will be determined as of Nov. 30 of the current year. Riders under 16 may advance on their own ability/competence.

• C Classification Advancement

  • All C riders carrying an ORPV of 15 or higher at year- end will be advanced to the B classification.

  • The following criteria are to be used when determining a rider’s eligibility for the C classification:
