The races are combined, but categories will line up and start in separated time handicapped waves, but will race for separate prizes. Must have 5+ riders per sub category to separate field.
Race promoters can refuse entry or give mandatory upgrades to sandbaggers. We want fair honest racing and will force people (if necessary) to move up to keep that way. Don't be suprised if we heckle and yell at you if you are sandbagging...
There are to be absolutely no cash rewards or incentives in the B and C races, in order to discourage sandbagging and to encourage the new and less experienced racers.
Individual Event Prize Lists
The B race will have merchandise prizes to 3 or more places. In no case should the value of the merchandise prizes exceed the Elite Men or Women. The C race will also have mechandise prizes awarded.
Riders must make it to 2 laps to go to before being lapped to be classified for points or prize money. Riders lapped on the leaders final lap finish on that lap, and will be classified.
