Heat Race Scoring: Scoring will be based on the points, listed below, awarded per finish in each heat race: 1st - ½, 2nd - 2, 3rd - 3, and so on... Feature Race Scoring: One point is added to chart below for each member taking the start. | Finish | Points | Finish | Points | | 1st | 200 | 10th | 80 | | 2nd | 175 | 11th | 75 | | 3rd | 155 | 12th | 70 | | 4th | 140 | 13th | 65 | | 5th | 130 | 14th | 60 | | 6th | 120 | 15th | 55 | | 7th | 110 | 16th | 50 | | 8th | 100 | 17th | 45 | | 9th | 90 | 18th | 40 |
Rain Outs: Only Feature Races that take the green flag will count towards final scoring. No rain points will be awarded for heat races or registration (purchased points). Feature races that are red flagged at any time after taking the green will be scored by position at the time of the red flag. DNF (Did Not Finish): Drivers failing to finish within the feature will be scored based on position at the finish of the race, in order of failure to finish. In the instance of two or more karts failing to finish on the same lap, order will be established based on last official recorded positions. DNS (Did Not start): To qualify for a DNS, the driver must have taken the green flag in at least one Heat Race. DNS will be scored based on the order of grid position for the Feature Race, behind all finishers, and DNF's.
