Yes, the gate never drops unless we have a Red Cross certified person on duty.

The only requirement is to have long pants and long sleeves and a full faced helmet.

When paid for, trophies will be given out to Rookie riders only. All other classes who pay for trophies will be receiving Track Bucks. The denominations are as follows:

• 4th thru 8th Place - $2
  

Track Bucks can be used for South Park and Westmoreland local registration fees, concession stands and purchases made at South Park Cycles. These may be combined but cannot be exchanged for cash.
