Track and Important Racing Rules

 

Please follow these track rules as well as BMX Canada Rules and the Supertrak BMX Code of Conduct for the safety and positive atmosphere of all riders, parents and spectators. For the full BMX Canada Rules visit USA BMX/BMX Canada website.

- Supertrak BMX race track is operated and maintained by executive board and volunteers of Supertrak BMX.

- Please limit use of the track if it is raining or if there is water standing as that will just create a lot of work for the volunteers whom will need to repair it.

- You NEED a membership to ride at our track.

- All riders, parents and spectators must follow Supertrak BMX Code of Conduct and BMX Canada Rules to participate at any club events.

- To race, riders are required to have full face helmets, gloves, closed-toe shoes, long sleeved shirt and long pants.

- The track is ONE-WAY ONLY. Do not ride the track backwards. It is difficult to see over obstacles and DANGEROUS COLLISIONS can and will occur.

- Always ride in the specified direction.

- DO NOT cut across track or stop on track unless injured.

- DO NOT hang out in the middle of the track.

- Unsportsman-like conduct will not be tolerated. Respect others.

- No skidding on the track.

- Always enter track at START GATE.

- Keep FINISH AREA clear.

- Please throw away trash in trash bins provided and please recycle bottles and cans in proper bins provided.

- Most important rule: Have FUN and ENJOY riding at Supertrak BMX track.

- No running onto track if your rider/child falls, track officials will access the situation and if deemed necessary you will be notified to come onto the track.

Persistent failure to follow Supertrak BMX track rules, Supertrak BMX Code of Conduct and BMX Canada Rule could result in a permanent exclusion from the track. We appreciate your cooperation and kind understanding.

30' FEET RULE (FROM THE GATE DOWN THE START HILL)

A rider determined by an official to have intentionally impeded the progress of another rider during the first 30 feet of the race may be disqualified from qualification or moved to last place in a main event situation. To facilitate this rule, it is recommended that a clearly visible line extend across the width of the track, placed at a point 30 feet from the starting gate.

(Moving over is not a foul in and of itself. Intentionally moving over and blocking another rider is the foul.)

- basically, once the gate drops, if there is a rider to either side of you, you MUST stay within your lane until you pass the 30' line. If you are in lane 7 and the nearest rider is in lane 4, you are able to move over within the 30', as you are not impeding another rider.

LAST STRAIGHT RULE (SIMILAR TO 30' FEET RULE)

When on the final straight, a rider determined by an official to have intentionally impeded the progress of another rider may be disqualified from qualification or moved to last place in a main event situation.

(Moving over is not a foul in and of itself. Intentionally moving over and blocking another rider is the foul.)

- basically, coming out of the last corner, maintain your line to the finish!

YOUNG RIDER ASSISTANCE RULE

The only riders that may be assisted at the starting gate are those 5 years old and youger. This assistance shall only include the rear wheel being placed between the assistance's legs. No hands may be used to prop the rider up and any pushing of will result in the rider's disqualification.

Parents of any rider 6 to 8 years of age may accompany their rider through the staging area. However, these parents are NOT ALLOWED to assist their rider at or on the starting gate. Parents of riders nine years of age and older may accompany their rider through the chutes but must exit the staging area upon exiting the chutes. These same parents may not be at or on the starting gate.

TRANSFER SYSTEM

Transfer system is a unique way of qualifying riders from the motos to the main events at each race. With the transfer system, there is a new winner with each moto,thus spreading rider moral while qualifiying the winning riders to a main event.

A rider will transfer (qualify) out of his/her respective motos by attaining an appropriate finish. Qualifying finish spots will be predetermined depending on the number of riders competing in each class, and displayed on the moto sheets.

Once a rider qualifies for a quarter-main, a semi-main or directly to a main event, he/she will not race the remaining qualifying motos, until his/her qualified event.

The following are examples of how the qualifying works:

Class of 3 or fewer riders - 1 group: Total Point System

Race 3 motos. First place counts as 1 point, second place counts as 2 points and third place counts as 3 points. After three rounds of motos, the rider with the least amount of points will get the overall win for the day.

Class of 4 riders - 1 group:<QUALIFIERS 1-2>

1st Round: 1st place rider qualifies
