We trophy at 33%, which means 1 for every 3 riders get a trophy.  If there is only (1) one rider in a class, there will not be a trophy in the class.

2.  Tom Jones (Mai)                                2. Robert Jackson (TRI)

PRACTICE & AGGRESSIVE RIDING

Practice is Practice! It is a time to get to know the track, not to race each other.
Aggressive riding will not be tolerated.

SCORING

1. The Olympic scoring method is used for each moto:  1 point for first, 2 points for second, 3 points for third, and so on. The smallest score wins.   Raceday scoring points are not to be confused with series points distribution for year end championship awards.  Please scroll down to learn how points are earned.

2. Riders must complete at least one full lap to be scored.

3. A non-starter is anyone who does not complete one full lap, following the circuit in its entirety; a DNS receives no points.

4. A non-finisher is anyone who completes one full lap but does not reach half-distance of the race; a DNF receives last-place points plus two positions, to avoid scoring problems.

5. A finisher is anyone who completes at least half the number of laps completed by the class winner in a moto (e.g., three laps of a five-lap moto); points are paid in the order of finish.

6. Each race concludes with the display of the checkered flag, even if a competitor believes the number of laps is not consistent with pre-race instructions.

7. Ties are decided by the finishing position in the last moto.

8. The rider, not the motorcycle, is the entry. A rider may switch to a second eligible motorcycle for the second moto in each class, but the rider MUST notify the sign-up staff at the registration trailer of the change and any new bike number prior to second moto and be sure to transfer his/her transponder accordingly.

9. If there are too many entrants for one moto, a class will be split at random and run as if there were two separate events.  Series points will be awarded as if there were two separate events.

10. PROTESTS: Results will be posted as soon as possible after the finish of a race.  Once posted, there will be a 30-minute review time.  If a rider believes there is an error in scoring, he or she must speak to scoring manager at sign-up or OSSRG Referee within 30 minutes of the provisional results being posted. Unprotested results will stand.  Any discrepancies will be resolved at the track. All results posted on the OSSRG website are considered final and can only be modified under direction of the OSSRG Director.

SERIES POINTS DISTRIBUTION
 

1. Points will be awarded according to each moto finish, without regard to rider’s overall performance for the day.

2. A rider will receive points if he or she is the sole class competitor.

3. A rider who moves up to a higher skill level within a class, will take half their earned points with them. 

4. A rider must score points in all four (4) events in 2024 to be eligible for championship titles and series awards at the end season.

5. Again, the following points are awarded for each moto finish:
1=20, 2=16, 3=13, 4=11, 5=10, 6=9, 7=8, 8=7, 9=6, 10=5, 11=4, 12=3, 13=2 & 14=1

6. Year-end scoring ties will be broken as follows:
Year-end scoring ties will be broken by the greatest number of moto wins, then second-place moto finishes, third place, etc. In the event of an absolute tie, the oldest rider wins.

7. If only one moto is run during a Race Day, double points will be awarded.

ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY

We have a "Zero or "NO" Tolerance Policy" during any OSSRG racing event when there is a live track. There is to be no consumption of alcohol by anyone who is racing with us on any given race day.  Any rider found drinking or under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance will be disqualified immediately and asked to leave the racetrack. This is for the safety and wellbeing of the rider and everyone else around him or her.

Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation.
