Rules for Club Points

2009 - 2010 Speedway Season

(Last Updated 01/02/09)

 

1.                  Points for all classes will be calculated in the same manner, and will be awarded in the following way:

 

2.                  Points will be awarded for each race, 26 points for the winner, down to 1 point for 26th place. (If there are more than 26 competitors, 27th place downwards will also receive 1 point?)  All starters are therefore guaranteed 1 point per race.

 

3.                  In order to qualify for more than one point, a competitor must complete 80% of the race laps.

 

4.                  A "DNF" will only score the 1 point for starting the race, no matter how many laps completed.

 

5.                  The number of required laps is rounded down if not a whole number. eg. 80% of 12 lap’s equal 9.6 laps, so competitors must complete at least 9 laps to qualify for more than 1 point.

 

6.                  Points will be awarded in this manner, even when races have been handicapped. Therefore, points will be awarded to classes where they are also competing in internal competitions such as the La-Z-Boy series, or the Husqvarna series.

 

7.                  Points will not be awarded for classes competing in national title meetings: ie; NZ Title, North Island, Grand Prix or BOP Champs.

 

8.                  If a driver is away competing at a national title meeting, ie; NZ Title, North Island, or Grand Prix event, the driver will receive 26 points (in total) for the home meeting they miss. (For Stock Car Teams Champs, this applies for the NZ Title only.)

 

9.                  Points will be awarded based upon the "official placings" posted on the night!! It is the responsibility of the competitor to ensure that any protests / queries are lodged and resolved within the specified timeframe after each race.

 

10.              Visiting drivers will be awarded points for their placings, but these will obviously not count towards the end of year prize giving.

 

11.              Points will be collated for, and monitored by the Committee.

 

12.              Club Points, with the exception of those for Ministock, will be published in the newsletter, and posted on the new club website.  www.bopspeedway.co.nz

 

13.              No Transponder = No Result = No Points………… No Argument and No Exceptions!!!

 

14.             BAYPARK SPEEDWAY is NOT involved in any way with the awarding of points, nor are they interested.  Do not approach them with any of your queries relating to points. There should be none anyway, as you will have dealt with any issues on the night, through the right channels.
