GATE PICK – For the first race of the weekend, riders will pick a peg to determine the order in which you go to the line. Please park in the pre-start area beside the number you have selected.
Your performance within your GROUP in the first race will then determine the order you go to the gate for all the remaining races.
The Gate Position you're given from the 1st race's results remains the same gate position all WEEKEND. Please remember your start position, there will be a notice board at the holding area where you can check your start position.
Please be at pre-start area in good time, as riders will be called to the start line when the race before yours is only half over. If you are not in the holding area you may lose your gate position for that race.
TEAR OFFS – we will confirm at riders briefing whether these are allowed.
PRACTICE & TRANSPONDER CHECK - please be sure to have your number board on your tail for practice and racing –and cover up any numbers on your bike that don’t match your race number.
At the start of practice, there will be a transponder check lap - please space out going over the finish line so our timing team can pick up your transponder and number board and match your name to your transponder.
RESULTS – results will be posted on the results board at the sign-on hut after each race. Please check your results after EACH race, particularly RACE 1, and be sure to raise any query you have well before the start of your next race.
CATERING - on site catering will be available throughout the weekend.
LITTER - please bring your own black bags and take your litter home. Please be prepared to clear up around you and check you have not left any litter when you depart.
LOOS – we have been asked to remind you to tidy up after yourselves when in the portaloos and to avoid emptying chemical toilets in them – there will be an IBC in place for this purpose, please use it.
RESPECT VENUE RULES – please remember, no campfires, no pit bikes, no noise late at night – this help us maintain the good relationship we have with the tracks we hire, so we are always welcomed back.
Wishing everyone a good and safe weekend. See you there!
