RACE FEES

RACE FORMAT
• Each driver will race once on each lane and will be given lane choice
in their final according to their position after the heats. Drivers will
race in seeded order (seeding will be worked out from the championship
table prior to the event).
• Races will be over a period of time e.g. 3 minutes. At the end of each
race the laps/footages are recorded. All race scores are then totalled
to give a qualifying position and step-up finals are raced. The use of
a lap top computer with race spreadsheet will be available for use so
that scores can be calculated at the end of each heat.
• 1 car only to be used through out a meeting, if a part breaks or fails
during a heat, the car can be repaired but needs to be scrutinised before
commencing the next heat. In the unlikely event of a total write off where
the original car is beyond repair a replacement car (conforming to the
rules) may be used for the remaining heats & finals but scores will
be scrubbed for that meeting. No change of car is allowed during a heat.
