Race Starting Procedure Guidelines: 

·       Exit from the holding bay, form up on the grid in the correct grid position.

·       Grid Officials will direct one or two warm up laps – waving off in rows by the removal of red flag, green flag shown at each

·       marshal’s post. Yellow flags at the last two Marshals posts shall slow the riders down, and the grid will re-form after the warmup lap(s).

·       Grid Official shall display a board with the number of race laps; they shall then leave the grid.

·       A red light will be displayed. After 2 – 5 seconds, the light will go out and the race commences.

·       Last Lap flag will be displayed when the leader had one lap to the end of the race.

·       A chequered flag shall be displayed to the leader at the end of the race, (they should not pass anyone from this point), and to all those bikes following, irrespective of the number of laps they have completed.

·       The winner of the race is flagged down nearing the pit entrance with a red flag.

·       The timing system is stopped when the red flag is displayed, as no other racers will pass the start finish. Those finishing with 9 or 8 laps in a 10-lap race will be deemed to be a finisher.

·       In the event of a light failure, the race will be started by the drop of the Saltire Flag.

 Grids: Will be aligned according to number of entries. Where possible we will grid bikes up according to tyre type. Again, this is always a challenge and will be done in conjunction with the Clerk of the Course.
