The rules and/or regulations set forth are designed to provide for the orderly conduct of racing events and to establish minimum acceptable requirements for such events.  These rules shall govern the condition of all events and by participating in these events, all participants are deemed to have complied with these rules.  No expressed or implied warranty of safety shall result from the publication of/or in compliance with these rules and/or regulations.  They are intended as a guide for the conduct of the sport of auto racing and are in no way a guarantee against injury or death to participants and pit personnel.

  1. Race lineups will be posted on the pit bulletin board in the order that such events are to be run.  It is the racer’s responsibility to know their position and to have their racecar/quad in the proper position on the grid in the staging area immediately after the preceding event leaves the track.
  2. If a driver is not able to participate in their scheduled event please notify the Line Up Official.
  3. There will be at least one lap for engine warm up at the beginning of each race.  Do NOT hot lap at this time obey the yellow flag.
  4. All race starts and restarts are at the cone in turn four, and go according to the Flagman’s discretion.  The green flag must be out before passing is allowed.
  5. Cars must be side by side on initial start and nose to tail on restarts.
  6. On restarts of any event, lapped cars will start in their actual running position unless they choose to start on the tail.  An Official may at his discretion move a driver to the rear of the field on restarts if that driver is not maintaining a race speed.
  7. The leader sets the pace.  Jumping on a start 1 time get you a warning, 2 times get you docked 2 places, 3 times get that driver ejected from the event.
  8. If passing flag is displayed, it is only to warn the driver that the leaders are coming up to lap him.  Hold your line unless directed otherwise by the flagman.
  9. Anyone pitting during the feature goes to the rear of the field.  A car that goes to the pits may re-enter the feature only if a red or yellow flag stops the race.  No driver can re-enter a heat race.
  10. Under normal circumstances, a race will not finish under a yellow or red.  One the leader takes the checkered flag, the race is officially over.  All feature events will end with green, white, checkered whenever possible.
  11. In all heat race events any driver causing 2 yellow flags will be ejected from that event.
  12. In all feature race events, any driver causing 3 yellow flags will be ejected from that event.
  13. Yellow flag means full track yellow.  Do Not race back to the start-finish line.  Scoring is by last completed lap.
  14. Do not disregard the yellow, red, or black flag.  If you do so you may be reprimanded up to and including suspension from the track.
  15. Do not approach any Track Official during an event to argue a point.  Fill out a protest form and give to the Line Up Official.  It will be addressed as soon as possible, but not during a race.
  16. NO participant shall subject any Track Official to verbal and/or threatening language at any time.  Drivers/Riders and or Owners assume the responsibility of All actions of their pit crews and themselves at all times.  Anyone taking part in discourteous conduct and/or causing a public disturbance on track property will be disqualified and/or suspended.
  17. On an occasion when a situation arises that is not covered by written rules, the Track Officials may put Special Rulings into effect.
  18. Official rulings are final.
  19. Winner of 2nd heat pulls pill for feature invert.
  20. Previous week’s winner starts no better than half field (depending on qualifying).  This will occur at next event that winner attends.
  21. No push quads on the track unless asked or permitted by a Track Official.  This includes when the ambulance is on the track on a red flag.
  22. No crew members will be allowed to work on a race car or quad within the racing area.

 

These rules are put into effect so that everyone can have a fair and fun time racing.
