Our team of track enthusiasts have been attending and organizing events on-track for decades, coming up with a simple but effective set of rules and regulations for you and your bike to follow when attending one of our events.
From bike prep, riding gear requirements, and registration procedures, to rider and spectator conduct requirements, the following pages will explain in detail what is expected so that you can arrive to the track confident and comfortable about your day. Sticking to these simple guidelines is what allows us to provide a safe and fun environment for everyone at our events, resulting in lots of time on track for every rider! It is the responsibility of each participant to be fully aware of the rules and guidelines that follow.
It is the rider's responsibility to ensure that their family, friends and crew members are made aware of and abide by the facilites rules as well as our rules. Please ensure that you are all aware of the rules for the track.
Pre-event emails will be sent out to all registered riders a few days prior to the event. There may be adjusted times for the event included in that email. Please ensure the email you are using for your rider profile is current to ensure you recieve all communications.
