NOVICE GROUP(S)​

  • This group will be run on an as-needed basis to provide a place for new participants to learn to race without the hazard of running with seasoned veterans.

  • The group can be comprised of 2-Cycle and 206 drivers of the same age group.

  • Finishing position will be as if they finished at the tail end of the appropriate class.

    • For example, if there were 6 entries in the Cadet 2-cycle class, the highest finishing Cadet 2-cycle in the Novice Group would receive 7th place points for the day, and so on with any other Cadet 2-cycle. The same practice would apply to the Cadet Briggs 206 in that Novice Group.

  • This concept can be applied to any class if the number of entries warrant its use.
