5: COST (Updated 1-15-08)

All race fees for the 2008 MX series will be $40 per class. GCQRA members will get a $5 discount on their first race entry (i.e. will pay $35) and, if they enter additional classes at that event, will get $10 off the additional classes. For example, Joe Racer is a GCQRA member and enters to race in the Blaster/Sport and the Co-Ed Youth classes. He/she will pay $35 for one class and $25 for the additional class. EXPERT racers: $50 for non-members and $40 for members.ProAm racers:$35 members and $40 for nonmembers Gate fees will probably be at least $10 per person on race day (that does include the racer). Gate fees are generally set by the track and not by GCQRA. NO REFUNDS will be given after the first gate has dropped on the first race of the day.

6: SERIES ( Updated 2008 )

There will be a total of 10 races in the 2008 GCQRA MX Series (or more). Your worst two finishes will be dropped and the remaining races will be used to determine Overall Winners in each class. A bonus score of 5 points will be added to those who have competed in ALL races in a given class. A racer must enter at least 5 races and be a GCQRA member by the beginning of the 4th round in order to be eligible for the Overall Year End Awards and contingencies.

7: POINTS

Points will be awarded for each race in each class as follows: 1st gets 25 points; 2nd gets 22 points, 3rd gets 20 points; 4th gets 18 points, 5th gets 16, 6th gets 15, 7th gets 14 and so on down to the last qualifying position. In the event of an end of year tie in total points, the tie will be broken by first determining which rider had the higher number of first place finishes for the entire year. If a tie still exists then the number of second place finishes for the entire year will be used and so forth until the tie is resolved. Points cannot, under any circumstance, be carried from one class to another.

8: HEAT RACES

Heat races will be run in any class that has more racers than the starting gate will hold. These heat races will qualify racers for the main event. Example: (20) racers enter a class. The starting gate will generally hold only (12) racers. These (20) racers will be divided up into two heat races with (10) racers in each heat. The top (5) racers will automatically advance to the main event. The other (5) racers from each heat will run a Last Chance Qualifier (LCQ or Consi) to determine the last (2) racers who will advance to the Main Event. The racers who do not qualify at the LCQ are finished at this point and will receive points as 13th place on...as determined by their LCQ finish. In this heat race format, only the Main Event will determine overall winners.

a. Racers receive Overall Points based on their finish position in BOTH motos, except when heat races are run. After racing both Motos, both finish positions are added together. The racer with the lowest score receives 1st place, the racer with the second lowest score receive 2nd place, etc. Example: Racer A received a 1st (Moto 1) and a 2nd (Moto 2). Racer B received a 2nd (Moto 1) and a 3rd (Moto 2). Racer A would receive a 1st place Overall (1st + 2nd = 3) while Racer B would receive 2nd Overall (2nd + 3rd = 5).

b. Those advancing to the Main Event from the LCQ need to understand how they will be scored on their LCQ. The racer scoring 1st place in an LCQ will be assigned a final position for that Moto which is one place behind the number of racers who advanced directly to the Main Event. Example: (20) racers enter a class. The gate will hold on (12). Therefore, there will be two heats with (10) racers in each heat. The top (5) from each heat will advance directly to the Main Event. The rest will run in an LCQ. The top (2) from this LCQ will advance to the Main. These (2) from the LCQ will receive a 11th and 12th place finish for their first Moto for determining gate choice only.

c. The second Moto ALWAYS counts more than the first. This is necessary because in many cases there are "ties" after both motos are complete.

d. Racers must finish at least one Moto in order to score an Overall finish position. Those who DNF (or DNS) both Motos will receive (0) points overall for that race.

9: RACE STAFF/PROMOTER/OFFICIAL AUTHORITY

The Starter of the race, Scorekeepers, Finish Line staff, GCQRA staff, etc., all have the authority to disqualify or penalize any racer acting inappropriately on or off the race track. Under no circumstances will any verbal, reckless or drug/alcohol induced abusive behavior be tolerated. Violators will be disqualified and/or removed from the event without refund.

10: RACE EQUIPMENT

Number plates are REQUIRED on both front bumper and rear grab bar of each quad. White plates with black numbers are recommended. No shading or outlining will be permitted. Expert may use blue plates with white numbers. We also recommend the use of numbers on both rear fenders. Remember, if you're number cannot be read, you will not be scored. • Helmets and boots are required of all racers. • A tether type kill switch is required to be installed on each quad being used for either practice or racing. Nerf bars or floorboards are also required. (We highly recommend nerf bars for Peewees if possible) • Chest protectors, racing pants, gloves and goggles are highly recommended.

11: LAPPED RIDERS

In the event that you are being lapped, you must allow the faster rider to pass you. Failure to do so may result in disqualification or loss of position.

12: TRACK BOUNDARIES

Riders must stay on marked course. If a rider loses control and goes out of bounds or is knocked off the track in a tangle with another rider, he/she must re-enter the track at the same place (or as close as physically possible to it.) Failure to do so could result in a docked lap or docked positions. If it is determined that the rider INTENTIONALLY cuts a section of the track, either to avoid a track obstacle (i.e. jump/whoops) or to gain positions, the rider may be docked positions, docked laps or disqualified. The race official will review each case and assess the fairest penalty for that case. The event must be witnessed by a Track official, GCQRA staff or track staff for penalties to be assessed. No penalty will be assessed based off spectator information only.

13. BREAKDOWNS - DNF

Riders must finish the Moto on the same quad they started on. The use of 2 or more quads in one heat or moto is not permitted. However, a second quad may be used for additional heat races or Motos if needed. The point of this rule is that the same quad that lines up at the gate is the same quad that must cross the finish line. NOTE: Rider must complete ONE FULL LAP (under their own power) or they will receive a DNF for this Moto. If you have finished a complete Moto and you breakdown in another Moto AFTER completing AT LEAST one lap, you can be pulled across the line for last place points (for that moto).

14: FLAGS

Each rider must memorize the color and function of each flag. A green flag signals that the race is in progress. The yellow flag signals that the racer should take caution and not attempt to gain a position or jump any jumps. This is usually used in a particular section of the track when an accident has occurred; the red flag will be used to stop the race. If the red flag comes out and the leader has not yet completed one half of the total laps, the race will be restarted , all riders shall return to the starting gate. If the leader has completed at least one-half the required laps and a red flag comes out, the race is over. The black flag is waved at an individual rider to signal him to pull off the track. The white flag is a courtesy flag that signals the rider to "take another lap". The checkered flag means that the race is over. ALWAYS RACE TO THE CHECKERED FLAG.

15: PROTEST

It is not up to the race promoter/official to check out all “possible” illegal quad modifications. If an official can visually see an illegal situation, that official will do their best to get the situation rectified. It will be up to that official how to proceed.

a. Scoring Inquiry/Protest: Any scoring inquiry must be received within 15 minutes of the completion of the Moto in question. All scores are final after the results have been posted for a 15-minute period unless there is a "keypunch error" by computer personnel.

b. Age Protest: A protest over a rider’s age must be received in writing along with a $50 cash deposit before GCQRA will perform any research. The “15 minute” rule also applies in this situation. If found to not be in the legal age range of a class, the rider will be disqualified and lose all accumulated points for the series.

c. Mechanical Protest: All protests concerning mechanical rules must be received in writing within 15 minutes of the completion of the Moto in which the protested machine competed. A “Mechanical Protest Form” must be completed and a $150 non-refundable cash deposit is required for each discrepancy listed. GCQRA officials will not pursue verbal protests. Once the protest has been filed, the GCQRA official will appoint a GCQRA mechanic to watch the teardown of the engine by the owner and will measure/inspect the cause of protest. If the second Moto for that class has not been raced, the machine will be parked in a designated area. The machine may leave the designated area only to compete in the second Moto (failure to bring the machine directly back to the designated area will result in automatic disqualification.) After the second Moto has been completed, the GCQRA mechanic will watch the teardown by the owner and will measure/inspect the cause of protest. Only the Rider and/or guardian, the Protestor, and GCQRA officials will be allowed during the teardown. Once the tear down is complete it is the owners responsibility to put the bike back together.

• If an engine discrepancy is found, then the rider will be disqualified from the event. The Protestor will be refunded $100 of their cash deposit with the remaining $50 being split between the mechanic and GCQRA. If a rider is found with an engine discrepancy again at another event, the rider will be disqualified from that event and will lose all accumulated points for the series.

• If NO engine discrepancy is found, then the rider will be awarded $100 of the deposit and the remaining $50 will be split between GCQRA and the mechanic.

Any Protests/complaints received from individuals who have been consuming alcohol or are abusive to Track/GCQRA officials and staff will be IGNORED.

16: LAPS

The Race Promoter will determine how many laps are to be run by each class at each particular event.

17: ADVANCEMENT (Updated 2008)

• The top 2 finishers of the 2007 Open B class must progress to the Open A or Pro Am class in 2008. The top 2 finishers in the 2007 Open C/Beginner class will be required to move up, even if they are still eligible to compete in that class. Also it is recommended that the 3rd, 4th and 5th place winners advance to the next class.

• The Race Promoter will have the authority to force a rider to “move up" to a more advanced class (anytime in the race season) if the Promoter feels that the rider is too advanced for his/her current class.

• Those entering the Open Expert class must stay in this class for the remainder of the year unless permission is granted by the Race Promoter. Those in other classes may switch to another class at future races if their quad meets class restrictions.

18: STARTING GATE

A rider may not have assistance at the starting gate by any persons, including parents, mechanics, guardians, etc. All non-riders (excluding starting gate staff) must back away from the starting gate once the riders are being "checked" by the gatekeeper. No pushing or other assistance will be allowed.

“Two minute rule”: If a rider fails to report to starting line during staging, a representative must be present to hold their starting position for the race. The starting of the race will not be held up for longer than two minutes.

19: MINORS

A Legal Guardian must be present at all times during specified moto, to ensure rider is secure from start to finish. If legal guardian of minor is not present, minor will not be allowed to race and will be disqualified.

20: AGE VERIFICATION

Age verification may be required. Please bring a copy of original birth certificate and/or driver’s license to each event. Failure to provide adequate proof of age could result in disqualification. Also, our rules do not closely follow the ATVA or WPSA rules. Be sure to check with their rules before entering one of their events.

21: TECHNICAL INSPECTION

All quads MUST BE inspected BEFORE going to the gate! This rule will be strictly enforced! It is not the race promoter/officials duty to make sure you have your quad inspected! It is your duty to make sure your quad is inspected! Tech inspections will generally be held on the day of practice before the race. If you show up to the race gate without proper tech inspection approval stickers you will not be allowed to race and YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED!

22: MINIMUM THREE (3) ENTRIES (Updated 2008)

All classes must have at least three (3) entries for that class to be gated by itself. Anything less than 3 entries will be gated with a competitive class and the gate may be dropped separately. The class with less than three (3) entries will be scored separately. Except for Pro Am, Expert and Over 30 A these classes must have 3 entries in order to pay out. If less than 3 riders these classes will be racing for points only.

23: NEW QUADS

New quads are being manufactured all the time. Any new quad coming into the market must first be evaluated by the race promoter/official in order to be considered “legal” in a “non-open” class.

24: FAMILY ORIENTED

GCQRA is a Family oriented organization and at all times will promote a family atmosphere.

25:Trophy (Updated 1-28-08)
