POINTS SERIES RULES
* A rider must move up, "upgrade", to the next category if he/she places 3 times in the top 3 or 5 times in the top 5 in any event that has more than 10 competitors in that race. Only those races count towards this rule which have more than 10 racers on a specific date. Once you move up, you will carry your points with you for all but one race. That is the handicapping required to to move you forward to the next category. The earlier you move up the better, then you still have several races to earn points in your new category.
You can submit a NORBA request to stay in one category in a series, however it has to go through a review process, and that could take some time. In the end you may be moved up after all.
* At the end of the series each racers lowest race will be dropped. If you miss a race in the series, this can be the "dropped" event. Then the winner will be determined.
