Understanding the Race Format

How Race Day Works

Afternoon practice sessions time each racer’s laps. The top 40 in each class advance to the night program.

Riders compete in one of two Heat Races per class. The top 9 finishers from each Heat Race advance directly to the Main Event.

Riders who don’t qualify through Heat Races get one final chance in the Last Chance Qualifier. Only the top 4 finishers advance to the Main Event. The LCQ lasts just 5 minutes plus one lap.

The Main Event is the championship race. It runs 15 minutes plus 1 lap for the 250SX class and 20 minutes plus 1 lap for the 450SX class. A maximum of 22 riders start on the gate.

Triple Crown Format

Three special rounds feature three Main Events instead of one. Houston hosts the first Triple Crown on January 31. Indianapolis takes the second on March 7. Cleveland finishes the Triple Crown schedule on April 18.

Combined results from all three Main Events determine the overall winner. The Triple Crown uses Olympic-Style Scoring where 1st place equals 1 point and 2nd place equals 2 points. The rider with the lowest combined score wins.
