    Grid Positions

    This is just a hypothetical question.

    Lets say you are in a class were you are simply out matched by the competition. You're not in it for the points you but still wanted to ride in the class. If you pay online in advance you'll get grided up front but you would feel more comfortable with starts from further back in the pack.

    What would be the best option?

    Wait to pay so you will be grided in the back.
    Can we ask to be grided in the back and still pay online.
    Just grid in the back no matter what pre-grid says.
    etc...

    Thanks

    After the first race you are gridded by overall point in the class, if you want to move back it is simple, finish last. :lol:

    ANYONE can grid at the back if they choose, regardless of where "you are gridded" on paper. Just let Nikol or Bob know in advance so they're not confused.

    Two reasons that could happen"

    1) people with points didn't pre-register, so lost their grid position

    2) People that didn't race at the first round showed up for this one, or changed classes.
