If a driver is not on the grid when the class is sent to the track they will automatically have to start on the rear unless someone from the drivers crew lets a official know they need time. You must line up in race order on the grid or you will start in the rear, unless you inform the grid official with a valid reason why you were unable to line up properly.
7. RACE STARTS - All starts and re-starts will be entering TURN THREE. A white chalk line will signify the start line and finish line at flag stand.
8. RE-STARTS - Complete re-start until a lap has been completed, after the second try karts will line up single file. Note, if anyone drives in over there head on start thinking you will get your spot back, it will not happen, anyone involved in wreck will go to rear and person who caused the wreck will go to complete rear.
9. FLAGMAN - The flagman will control the start of the race as conditions of track permit. If your kart experiences a problem at the grid, prior to the green flag, you will be given five laps to get on the track. The kart will be removed from the event if unsuccessful. The five lap rule is a general guideline. If we see that you will soon be ready we may allow more time, especially for kid's classes. A race may be stopped at any time if the flagman or officials contemplate dangerous or unsafe conditions.
10. CAUTIONS - When the yellow flag is displayed, slow down immediately. DO NOT wait until you cross the start/finish line to decrease speed.
If the caution comes out for you or your kart, you go to the rear. Examples: You lose your neck brace, your bumper is dragging, etc. Once caution is out, you are not penalized for spin or stopping on track. If it is the flagman's opinion that a kart had no choice, but to spin out to avoid serious contact with a kart or group of karts out of normal racing position that kart will not be sent to the rear. Any kart/driver involved in three cautions will be given the black flag. The definition of "Involved" will be determined by track officials. We will take consideration for kids, especially new drivers. All classes will be allowed to restart engines three times. All classes will be given three laps to get order for racing after any cautions occur. No laps will be given for change or repair of flat tires once race has started. Tools and changes are allowed on the grid and the track before the race starts. . Drivers spinning out on starts/re-starts or before a lap is scored will be sent to the rear.
11. ACCIDENTS - Accidents will be investigated, and the involved karts may be required to stop for inspection by officials in charge. Race officials may also inspect driver helmet and other safety apparel for damage.

14. STOPPING ON TRACK - If a driver is forced to stop on the racing surface during a race, the competitor must raise both hands to signal approaching drivers that he/she is immobile. The driver is also responsible for moving the kart to a safe area as quickly as possible.
15. SLOWING ON TRACK - When a kart slows from racing speed on the track, the driver must signal to approaching competitors by raising a hand high enough to be clearly visible from behind.
16. RAINOUTS - A race will be counted as complete once 80% of heats are finished: feature points will be awarded per finish order of heat. On nights with a chance of rain, classes with the most karts will be scheduled to run first. If heat races are complete for all but 4 classes with 4 or more karts and we rain out, race will count as feature. 4 remaining classes and classes with 4 or less karts will run their feature 10 laps the following week right after hot laps. Then, that week's heat race will run. Special events and wing karts do not count as classes. Kid?s karts and classes with 4 or less are not part of the 80%.
17. ENGINE CHANGE - If you change a kart or an engine after it has been qualified, you will automatically start on the rear of the field.
18. UNSPORTSMANLIKE DRIVING - Unsportsmanlike driving is defined as bumping, crowding, chopping, blocking, or pushing other karts. It will not be tolerated. (Ref. WKA Rule 106.2.1 & 106.2.2) 1st offense will be a warning and a position at the end of the field. 2nd offense will result in the driver receiving the black flag and the loss of all points for that event. EXAMPLE: Turning down into a kart that has position on you to pass to stop their momentum is considered unsafe/unsportsmanlike driving if the nose of their kart is 1/2 way up your kart.
19. SCALES ? All karts must weigh in after both the "heat" qualification and the "feature? race. Weighing in light for heat qualification or failing to weigh in will result in starting last for the feature. Weighing in light for feature or failure to weigh in will result in disqualification and no points for the entire event. All engines MUST BE SHUT OFF prior to crossing the scales.
20. SUBSTITUTE DRIVER - A substitute driver can be used twice a season for injuries or illness, but the substitute driver must start the heat race in the rear. If driver change occurs due to injury during a race, that event does not count as one of the two substitutions. The original driver will receive all points until after the second race event. After the second race event all points and winnings will go to the new driver.
21. REPLACEMENT DRIVER ? Every driver is also allowed a 1-TIME replacement driver per season for any reason. Point?s racers can use substitute driver for injury and a 1-TIME replacement driver and still receive their attendance BONUS points. The substitute or replacement driver may use their own kart or the original drivers kart for the race event(s). Replacement driver can qualify the kart and original driver can show up and run feature and keep the starting position, however, it uses up the 1-TIME replacement driver.
22. CLASS CHANGE ? Anyone requesting a change in classes MUST have proof of age to show at registration. Class change can ONLY move upward. Once you advance, you may not move back down.

There must be an average of 5 or more karts in a class for the season for overall track champion points and jacket to be awarded.
24. ADD CLASSES ? If you wish to add a different class to the order, bring three karts and present it to the track promoters. Again, drivers must run 60% of the scheduled races to receive year-end awards. Track officials reserve the right to eliminate any classes with less than 4 karts, or if allowed to run with another class, reserve the right to separate the class at any time.
25. COMBINING CLASSES ? The Race Director may combine classes: classify entrants into groups according to driver experience, lap times, or other factors for purposes of safety or event expediency, but not by age. Race officials may conduct events restricting certain races to a certain classification of drivers or total number of entries.
26. CLASS ORDER ? A class race may be skipped temporarily for any reason, but may still race that night. EXAMPLE: One or more drivers are registered in multiple classes that are close together and driver doesn?t have enough time for needed changes to kart.
