When it runs

Practice runs from the doors opening until racing starts.

Which classes run

3 entries make a class. The program moves week to week and a class missing from a night is normal rather than a gap — what ran is whatever turned up.

Across the nights on file that has meant: Mod 2wd Buggy, Mod 4wd Buggy, 17.5 Expert 2wd Buggy, 13.5 Expert 4wd Buggy, 21.5 Independent 2wd Buggy, 13.5 Stadium Truck, Novice.

Fastlane runs more classes than the club nights have used, across four different tracks. The sign-in form carries the full list.

What counts on these boards

A win only counts in a class with somebody to beat and a driver who turned a lap, so nobody tops the board for turning up alone. A TQ is the same.

The lap board ignores anything under 12 seconds. The quickest anybody has gone here is 13.231, so a figure below the floor is timing counting a transponder twice rather than a record — those get thrown out rather than crowned.

Rivalries need three nights in the same class before they are printed, and beating somebody whose car never left the bench is not counted. Everything here pools both programs; each program page keeps its own boards as well.

How a night runs

Two qualifiers, then mains. Seeding is most laps, and on equal laps the quicker time — so 20/5:10 beats 20/5:25, and a single fast lap on its own moves nobody. Every figure in a qualifying row describes the one run a driver was seeded on rather than his best number from each.

A big class splits into an A and a B, and a bigger one into a C as well. The lower mains run first and the top two move up a main at a time — the C bumps into the B, the B bumps into the A — so a driver can race twice in a night. Each main is published as its own race, counted from first, and a driver who moved up appears in both of his: the one he won his way out of and the one he went on to run.
