X. Endurance Rules 1. Unless otherwise stated all other rules apply. 2. An endurance race is determined by time. The clock will start at the drop of the initial green flag and will end after the designated amount of time has elapsed. The clock will not be stopped for any reason. The winning team will be the team that has completed the most laps at the checkered flag. If teams complete the same number of laps, then their order across the finish line shall determine finishing position. 3. A team will consist of a Team Owner who must be a rider, and a Team Name that must remain the same throughout the year. The team may have as many other riders or motorcycles throughout the year as desired. Points are awarded to the Team Owner. 4. The minimum number of riders shall be two (2) and no rider may ride for more than 90 minutes without a minimum 15-minute break. 5. Pit signals may be given to riders only from the designated signaling areas. 6. No smoking allowed in the pits! 7. All refueling must be done with the engine shut off and the rider shall be off the bike. A fire extinguisher with the pin removed must be aimed at the motorcycle. The person holding the fire extinguisher must be standing on the same side of the pit wall as the motorcycle and should be standing upwind of the motorcycle. 8. PIT ENTRANCE / EXIT: To enter the pits during an endurance race day, raise your hand before the off camber turn, stay to the inside of the track as you exit the off camber turn, raise your hand again as you approach the sweeper, stay to the inside of the sweeper, and enter the pits. To exit the pits during an endurance race, stay to the left as you merge onto the front straight. Remember that riders exiting the sweeper and those entering the pits have the right of way. 9. In the event of a red flag, the race will be scored as of the last complete lap before the red flag. Original grid positions will be used for the restart and the clock will not stop. If a red flag occurs near the beginning of a race, the clock may be reset to zero (0) minutes at the discretion of the starter. 10. Each team must provide one scorer who will be seated in the scoring tent. 11. Scoring for the championship series: Each team will accumulate mileage points for races in which they compete. These points will be computed on the basis of laps completed multiplied by the length of the track (1.3 miles) and then divided by 10. Teams will also accumulate points in the same manner as sprint races (i.e.: 25 points for first etc.). Series class winners will be determined by adding mileage points and class points. Series overall winners will be determined by adding mileage points and overall points. |
