Event Rules:

Scratch Race ��� The basic track race. All riders race for a set number of laps. A bell rings with one lap to go. The first rider across
the line wins.

Point-a-lap (UCI Style Tempo) ��� Neutral lap, 3 laps, then the first rider across the line every lap receives 1 point.
4 points awarded for gaining a lap on the field. You lose 20 points if you lose a lap to the field. Ties are broken by the finish sprint.

Points Race ��� A predetermined number of sprints occur at set intervals. For example, a 6x5 points race will have 6 sprints every 5 laps. A bell rings with one lap to go before each sprint. Points are awarded to the top 4 riders across the line for each sprint (5,3,2,1), the last sprint has double points (10,6,4,2). Riders are awarded 20 points if they lap the field ��� or have 20 points subtracted if they lose a lap to the main field. The rider with the most points at the end of the race wins. Ties are broken by the finish sprint.
