9.5.C. Grid positions for all other classes will be determined as follows:
9.5.C.a. For the first race of the season grids will be based on the previous season’s
championship points in that class, then by order in which entries are
received by the MRA.
9.5.C.b. For the second race and subsequent races, grid positions will be based on
season to date points in that class.
9.5.C.c. Late entries will be gridded behind all early entries regardless of season to
date points, and will be in the order in which they are received by the MRA.
Late entries will be assessed a $40 late fee (see Section 11.2).

Grids for the sprint races will be set by 2 timed qualifying/practice sessions on Saturday. Riders must post one qualifying time per motorcycle from either session. The fastest time will be used to grid the rider in each class for that motorcycle. The rider is not allowed to qualify the same motorcycle in both sessions and use their best time from the two sessions. However, if a rider has circumstances that he/she was not able to make their designated qualifying session, they may request special circumstances from race direction to qualify in an alternate session. If a rider has two (2) or more motorcycles entered into different classes, he/she must qualify each motorcycle in the appropriate class.


Qualifying groups are as follows:
• Open Expert
• Open Amateur/Novice
• Middleweight Expert
• Middleweight Amateur/Novice
• Lightweight Expert/Amateur/Novice

This is reflective of most other originations including but not limited to CVMA, WERA and MotoAmerica. With the MRA being a MotoAmerica sanctioned club and a starting point to MotoAmerica it is imperative that our practices align with other clubs.
