YELLOW BACKGROUNDS signifying the Premier Pro class need to be

on your bikes, so make that happen. Once teched, your bike

will get a sticker which is for Saturday afternoon practice

at normally 5:00 PM and will run 45 minutes to an hour. For

Pro riders not making the tech and sign up on Saturday,

you will be able to tech Sunday morning from 8-9 only.

 

All the 4-Stroke Premier Pro riders are required to sign up and

have your Bike Tech inspected from 2:30-5:00 on Saturday or

from 8:00 am to 9:00 am on Sunday. The $100 Pro sign up

fee will get you and a mechanic in for practice on Saturday

afternoon (after 1:00) and racing on Sunday. This includes track gate fee

of $10-15 a day. At sign up we will know what you paid and

deduct it from the Maximum $100 for you and your mechanic. Do not come
to front gate before
12:00 on Saturday, or you will be charged a two-day fee.

 

However, if you race a seperate class on Saturday, a separate gate

fee will have to be paid to the track and won't be taken off the $100.

All tracks:

4-Stroke Premier Pro practice, will run from 5-6 PM on Saturday.
Then on Sunday, 15 minute practice at
9:15/9:30. NOTE, Qualifiers, will run at 10:15
and
10:30 (back-to-back). Be watching signup and listening to the announcer
in case we have three qualifiers. If three qualifiers are needed, back-to-back from
the second (approx.
10:45). Last chance will run at approx. 11:10.

250F Pro signups, track promoters will opt to provide the 250F class on Saturdays.

$2,000 Purse, paying top 10 per moto. Round #1, Surprise, Arizona had 44 entries
last year (2004)
and it was some excellent racing. All tracks will offer this additional class.

 

NOTICE, Rider meeting will be prior to the qualifier(s) at 9:00. If you can not make the rider

Riders Points Fund - Paying the top 20 riders in the Championship
Points chase/Riders Points Fund- (Premier Class ONLY) Do not need to make main events to qualify.


All tracks are a two-day Amateur event hosting all 2-Stroke classes from Pee-Wee,

60 (Beg-Int), 80 (Beg-Int), 125 (Beg-Pro), 250 (Beg - Pro), Open (Beg-Pro), Vet (Beg-Pro),
Old Timer (Beg-Pro), Women, Age classes too. BOTH DAYS – 
Tracks DO run a two moto format for Amateurs on Saturday and Sunday.
Confirm with each facility prior to arrival, as some tracks will run only a few classes
extra on Sunday.  

If rider earns a Western or Eastern National number for the prior

year, it is requested the rider use that number. If you are a 125/250 AMA

Outdoor National rider who has earned a number in that series, you are

allowed to use it along with your last name initial in the plate in case of double

numbers come thru tech-sign up!

 

World FIM and Canadian National riders may use their assigned/earned number

provided contacting the Organizer and/or series referee in advance to verify.

 

Remember top 10 in the series, plus past champions in Motocross Nationals ONLY
will not have to run the four (4) lap qualifiers. They are automatically seated in moto one.

 

Top ten in the series will get gate choice, then past National Champions, then how you finish
in the qualifier will determine your gate choice.

 

For 2005, the riders that followed the series, making the main moto's on the Sunday Program
deserves to earn points toward garner for an earned National Number. Awarding the top four moto
finishers higher points, Example 1st is 45, 2nd is 42, 3rd is 40, 4th is 38 and 5th is 36 points, then
increments of 1 point down, 6th would be 35, etc., etc, decreasing by one point all the way to 39th
earning 2 points and 40th earning 1 point. Look at the riders points fund verses the Scoring system
to see how it will be paid back.

 

The 25 point scoring system will still be used for the daily and series championship points. As you
know that system only gives points to the top 20 in each moto. Per moto it gives 25 points for 1st,
22 for 2nd, 20 for 3rd, 18 for 4th, 16 for 5th and then decrease by one point increments with 15 for 6th
all the way to 1 point for 20th.

 

The Western 4-Stroke National Points system will determine

how the National Numbers are given and after the last number

earned is taken all the rest of the riders who have points

from the "Riders Points Fund" will fall in line thereafter.

 

New updated Programs arrive at all tracks a few days before

the event. The complete Programs is printed and then four

(4) change pages are done for each event. For new riders

that are not in the Programs or on the web site, let us know.
