TRACK RULES
RACE DAY SCHEDULE:
1) Pits open at 4:00 PM
2) Pre-tech will be 4:00-5:00 PM (All karts must be pre-teched
prior to being allowed on track.)
3) Hot laps will be 5:00 -5:30 PM
4) Pit Meeting 5:45 PM
5) Races will begin promptly at 6:00 PM
SCORING:
1) A pill draw will be used for the first heat line up. The second heat will be
inverted start from the first heat. The participants of these heats will receive
points based on where they finish in the heats. These points will determine the
starting order of the feature race that day.
2) Number of laps in heats will be 10 and features will be 20. All races will be
timed. The clock will start when the green flag has been displayed and will run
continuously until the number of laps is completed or the time runs out. 15
minutes allowed for heats and 25 minutes for features. If we have over 12 karts
in a class, a “B” feature will be run.
3) If the time expires under the yellow flag, the race will be restarted for a
green/white/checkered finish.
4) If the yellow flag is displayed after the leader takes the white flag, the
karts will be relined up and will go green/white/checkered.
5) All karts will line up in the staging area. Only driver and one person will
be allowed per kart in this area. This is to allow the line up procedure to run
more smoothly and avoid congestion. Karts have 90 seconds to enter the track
after the staging light turns green.
6) All karts must weigh immediately after exiting track after finishing each
race. If the kart weighs light, the driver is allowed to roll off the scales,
have the scales reset, and re-weigh one time. If the driver leaves the scaling
area he/she forfeits the right to re-weigh.
7) If you are disqualified during post feature race inspections, you will lose
all points, trophies, prizes for that day and you will not be allowed to race at
the next scheduled race. The second time of disqualification the driver is
banned for the year.
8) Pay back
75% of money in all classes except Rookie. Rookies will receive trophies and
participation medals.
9) Each kart must have VERY VISIBLE numbers on sides and back of kart in order
to be scored.
$25 to Race includes driver and kart. $6
Pitt Passes.
RACING APPAREL (NO EXCEPTIONS ! ! ! ! ! )
1) Full face helmet
2) Approved neck brace
3) Gloves
4) Driving suit, leather, heavyweight vinyl or abrasion resistant vinyl jacket

PIT RULES:
1) Driver must stop at cold pit line after leaving scales.
2) No bicycles, mopeds, minibikes, rollerskates, blades, boards, etc. allowed in
the pits at any time.
3) No alcoholic beverages in the pits until the entire race program has been
completed.
4) Each driver is responsible for their pit crew and keeping their pit area
clean.
TRACK PROCEDURES:
1) When entering the track, the track will be under “yellow”, this means enter
slowly and cautiously.
2) Scrubbing tires will be allowed under yellow and on the straight only.
3) Flagman will give all drivers a rolled up green flag to indicate he will be
going green the next time around and for everyone to stay in line.
4) No one is to approach any racing official on the track or in the score tower
once the initial green flag has been thrown. If a driver has a question for the
officials, they must wait until after the checkered flag is thrown. Please
conduct yourselves in a proper manner.
STARTS:
1) The race will start when the field is leaving turn 4 at a reasonable speed,
everyone is lined up correctly and the flagman has waved the green flag.
2) The field must make a complete lap to be an official start. If this does not
happen, there will be a complete restart.
3) The field has 2 double file starts to complete a lap. After that, the field
will be lined up single file with the karts that caused the false start at the
back.
RESTARTS:
1) Once there is an official start, if a yellow or red comes out, we will go to
a single file restart.
2) Restarts will be done single file with a cone coming out of turn 3. The field
will be lined up single file, and as they come out of turn 3 and pass the cone
on the outside, as long as everyone is lined up correctly, flagman will give the
green flag. Passing is not allowed until you pass the cone. If you hit the cone
on the restart, you will be scored as last place.
RACING AND RACING ACCIDENTS:
1) If the yellow or red flag comes out because of an accident or spin out, the
kart or karts causing the yellow flag to come out will go to the back of the
field. In the Rookie, Jr. 1 and Jr. 2 classes, three spins will be allowed
before being sent to the pits. In the Light/Heavy/Open and other classes, 2
spins will be allowed before being sent to the pits. If your kart dies or needs
to be shut off during this process, you will be allowed to restart.
2) In the event of a red flag, the running participants should carefully drive
to the front straight, stop in a single file and stay in their karts until
otherwise directed. Any kart causing the red flag condition will not be allowed
to restart.
3) On a red flag, if you go to the pits for any reason and then return before
going green, you will go to the back of the field. If a red flag is thrown and
you are stopped on the track, only one person will be allowed on the track to
restart your kart or do VERY MINOR repairs.
4) If the red flag comes out because of a possibly serious accident, we will
allow a family or crew member out to the accident only after the track personnel
feel it is safe to do so. Everyone else needs to stay back so that the injured
party can be assisted. Once the track is clear, the races will resume.
POST RACE:
1) Immediately after the heat races, the karts should exit the race track and go
straight to the scales to be weighed. Upon authorization from tech person, they
will be directed back to their pits.
2) Immediately after the feature race, feature winner will take a victory lap
with the checkered flag. Everyone must then exit track and be weighed. The top
two karts in each class will be directed to the tech area. Our track has a list
of numbered tech items. The head tech person will draw a random pill number to
determine what item will be teched that night. The top two karts in each class
will be teched. If any kart is found to be illegal, they will lose their points
for that night and will not be allowed to race at the next scheduled race.
SPECIAL NOTES:
1) Rookie class: There will be one person allowed in the infield to assist the
rookie driver.
2) Any driver that scratches from a race needs to inform a track official as
soon as possible.
3) If a driver ignores the black flag when displayed and does not go to the pits
for consultation on the next lap after the first signal was given, no laps will
be credited after the first signal was given.
