THE SEVEN CHAMPIONSHIP NIGHTS DECIDE THE KING & QUEEN OF THE BOMBER
Bomber points which count towards the overall King & Queen trophies will be issued on the higher category (cat. 2/3) championship nights only. Your BEST 5 results will count towards your final score. If points tie then the most wins during the season takes the trophy then counting back to 2nd places, 3rd places etc.

Bomber points will mirror BC points ie. 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 1

Sprint primes will only be available at the seven championship rounds only and are awarded to 1st and 2nd over the line (2,1 bomber points & £10 cash to winner). There will be one sprint at any point in the race but not within the first 5 or last 5 laps.

Entry £16 in advance or £20 on the night. We have recently invested a substantial sum in new tarmac at the circuit to make it safer for our riders so have had to put a "tarmac tax" of £1 on the entry fee to go towards paying this money back.   

Cash prizes for top three on the night: 1st=£20   2nd=£15   3rd=£10.

SORRY NO TRANSFERS OR REFUNDS - Please don't ask - just too much admin for me.
