Rules of Driver Behavior

Membership

All members are required to live in the boundaries of the club map of central Massachusetts. The only exception to this will be for the members allowed in the 2011 and 2012 seasons by current 2010 and 2011 members before the March dead line. Each current member was allowed one new member outside of the boundaries to join the club as was voted on at the February 2011 and January 2012 meetings.

All renewals are due by March 31 as was voted and passed by the membership at the February 2012 meeting. If the renewal is not received by March 31 this member will be considered not current and cannot race in the following season. Special cases will be reviewed by the board in confidentiality for hardship cases.

All new members must be sponsored by a current paid club member and it is the responsibility of the sponsor for the new member to know the rules of the club.

Gamblers/Invitational Races

Points

Point to be awarded to losing rounds. In the case of a rain out all points are awarded to the last full completed round of racing. ( Insert Swede’s points here)

Race Procedures

All drivers Must attend the drivers meeting which will be held after the final qualifying session.

We ask that all drivers when called to the lanes get to the lanes as fast as they can as the track is on a schedule. With that being said, if you choose to run more than one class that day, you need to make the call for your classes. Failure to make the call will result in a default on your round.

Once entered into the staging lanes, switching lanes will not be allowed unless told to do so by a Track Official. If you know you have a Bye Run you are to stay at lower staging until you are told to enter the staging lane. If there is an even number amount of cars in that round, then the driver with the Bye Run will have lane choice over his opponent.

First round laddering positions will be based on your best reaction time during time trials. Example based on a 16 car field: #1 vs. #16; #2 vs. #15; #3 vs. #14; #4 vs. #13; #5 vs. #12; #6 vs. #11; #7 vs. #10; #8 vs. #9. The higher qualifier(lower reaction time) will get lane choice. If there is an odd number of cars, the number one qualifier will receive the bye run. Racers pairing will be announced at the drivers meeting. Racers are to enter the tech area to be paired by track officials. DO NOT GO INTO STAGING UNTIL YOU HAVE BEEN PAIRED. Except for first round, lane choice will be done by agreement or coin flip.
