~~Awards~~

There will be trophies for the top 10 in Pro-Stock Cup & Brushless Cup and the Top 5 in Hurricane Cup, Recoil cup, Prototype Cup and Cooper Cup…..these amounts may be raised or lowered depending on the turn out over the entire series….Example if only 3 people make it to a majority of the races in say Cooper cup then we will only have trophies for the top 3…..over 10 people make it to every race then we will have 10 trophies for the top ten.

There will be TQ awards for the 2 1/10th scale class classes and based on turn out other classes might be added as well.
There will be raffle prizes handed out at each event. There will also be prizes handed out at the final race. You must be present at the final raffle to win and claim your prize. Each driver gets one entry, per class, per event to be thrown into for the final raffle.


Points Break down……
Each Racer will receive points for their respective overall qualification in that class after 3 rounds of qualifying. Meaning the Overall TQ for his or her class will get 100 points…..2nd over all qualifier will get 99 points and 3rd will get 98 points and so on. Now for the points for the main results in each class everyone will still be racing everyone else but they will be in their respective main. Who ever finishes their main with the quickest overall time in their class will be awarded 100points….and who ever has the second quickest main result will get 99points and so on. This means that someone who is in the C-main can take the overall victory for the mains if their result is the quickest of the rest of the class and by the same token someone from the B or C main can also finish second overall with a quick enough time. So this means that everyone will be receiving 1 point total at the end of each day based off of these two 100 point scales. This system has been used by other series and it has worked out great and makes for an interesting season with the way things can unfold.
