New race formats



English posted,

What do racers think of different racing formats and different classes? Hypothetically speaking.

ie. Head to head racing

Baton passing team relay racing

or random 4 man heats all day, everyone rides, and winner is declared on points. if theres a tie, race.


or 4 man teams whole team has to cross the line to win


and when speaking of formats I think the concept of PRO and AM would be sick. Pro being defined as sponsored, and AM meaning no help at all. It would work itself out naturally as AMs win, they would get sponsored and move to PRO classes.

PRO gets cash. AM gets cash (not as much) and ALL the swag.



Within the AM class have sub divisions so everyone pretty much has a chance at winning

over 30, over 40, under 12, under 14, under 16, under 18.

Fuck we could do evo classes, wood board+cast truck class, topmount class, drop thru class, over 181mm axle class, the opportunities are endless.

I think the cash should be spread out down the line as far as it will go. more cash to more winners.


On a side note, there should be opportunity for people to free ride the race course before heats for 60% of entry fee.

Just wanted to throw a couple things out there for discussion
