The first race will be oval this week for the 4 race series. Next week it will start the roadcourse series. All the series races are at 6pm. The 1 o'clock races will stiil run for those wanting to get extra laps and testing in like this Saturday. Classes for oval points are;
Pancar
Touring
Offroad buggy and truck

Roadcourse classes are
1/12th
GP2
Touring

The entry fee will stay the same as always. Also, there may be a break during the Snowbirds since quite a few people are going there.

Any questions?

What points system will be used for the series?

Might sound strange but check the AMA system for MX. That seems to work better than anything we've tried so far. It rewards good position but does not punish a bad raceday. It worked great for the tour and we will use it again.

Who plans to race on-road at 1pm this Saturday 1/6?

If there are enough racers to run Touring I'll come up to race.

George - Do you have a link for the AMA MX Points System?
Or could you post how the AMA points system rewards points.

Thanks

Thats it! The MX points and not the stupidcross stuff. No extra points for TQ since this is all about the finishline!

ShaunMac

Yes, those are the basic rules for Stock Touring Class. ROAR Rules.

Lately, there hasn't been any teching of cars. Just the honor system. And that has worked just fine. Teching the cars would only take a minute. 6 cells.....check! Stock motor/arm.........check! Okay you're done! Might not be a bad idea to tech after the Mains. Just to make things fair.

It doesn't matter to me.
