BADGER MOD TOUR RACE PROCEDURES
1. The number of cars starting a race is determined by the track officials and depends on the type of event, width, length and condition of track.
2. Race car must display number as assigned by track personnel. It must be minimum four inches thick and 20 inches tall and clearly visible, on both sides, top and back of car, and front, if possible. Recommended that no holographic or reflective numbers be used.
3. Promoter and Badger Mod Tour officials will not be responsible for allowing a late entry to compete. Rejection of entrants at any given time is allowed but pit gate closing time should be known to all competitors.
4. Any driver not ready to compete when called may be sent to rear of starting line-up, or left out of balance of program at discretion of official in charge.
5. Once a race is started on a preliminary line-up lap, disposition of cars not in position shall be at discretion of officials.
6. A race may be stopped at discretion of officials at any time, if considered dangerous to continue, but only officials have the right to stop a race. No driver, car owner, pit man or mechanic may use starter’s flags for purpose of signaling competitors.
7. If track has pre- or post-race inspection, those drivers not reporting to the inspection area may be disqualified and given last place points.
8. No race is official until officials make declaration of final scoring of positions.
9. No race car is to receive assistance after white flag is displayed and all finishes must be made under car’s own power or momentum.
11. No person shall be allowed on track during a race except officials.
LINE-UP PROCEDURES
1. For each event all drivers draw for heat starting position. Drivers must draw before advertised cutoff time to insure getting draw position.
2. Heat races will be awarded finishing and passing points. The point system is based on 59 points for first and four less points for each consecutive position with an additional 1.5 points for each position gained. Below is a chart for passing points during heat event.
Drivers who fail to draw, elect to start in rear of race, and/or are late to starting grid (must be in line by white flag of previous race). Will start in rear of race and incur a 10 point penalty in passing point calculations.
| Finish Start | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | 5th | 6th | 7th | 8th | 9th | 10th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1st | 59 | 55 | 51 | 47 | 43 | 39 | 35 | 31 | 27 | 23 |

3. “B” mains are lined up from greatest to least heat passing points (from that event).
4. The number of cars that transfer to the A-Main will be determined by the number of heats.
2 Heats: Top 10 in passing points
3 Heats: Top 10 in passing points
4 Heats: Top 12 in passing points
5 Heats: Top 14 in passing points
6 Heats Top 16 in passing points
7 Heats: Top 18 in passing points
After the last heat there will be a dice roll at the drivers meeting to determine the number of cars that invert. The Dice roll number plus “6” (SIX). Will determine the number of passing point cars that will invert positions.
**If there is a tie for the final passing point position: That tie will be determined by the draw numbers for that night’s event.
Drivers that do not transfer to the A-Main will compete in a B-Main event. The event will be lined up greatest to least passing points from the heat event.
PROVISIONALS:
Provisional Procedures: Refer to Race procedure layout to determine the number of provisional for an event. Provisionals will be awarded in this order: 1st) Highest in BMT points who has not yet qualified for the show. 2nd) Highest track points provisional. If it’s a track that does not race these cars weekly that provisional will revert back to the next highest driver in BMT points. At events where 36 or more Modifieds are present, we will add positions 23 and 24 to the starting A main field. That decision will be based upon the size of the track, track conditions and the BMT has final say as to if and when this takes place.
POINTS SYSTEM
1. Championship points are made up of the below point totals:
a. Heat points will be awarded. 1st getting 15 and each consecutive position getting one less point.
b. Passing Bonus Points: Top five in passing points at each event will receive bonus points. 1st in passing points will receive 5 points, 2nd 4, 3rd 3, 4th 2, 5th 1.
c. Non Qualifiers will receive 45 points.
d. Feature points are 1st 100, 2nd 95, 3rd 91, 4th 86, 5th 84, 6th 81, 7th 78, 8th 76, 9th 74, 10th 72, 11th 70, 12th 69, 13th 66, 14th 64, 15th 82, 16th 60, 17th 58, 18th 56, 19th 55, 20th 54, 21st 53, 22nd 52, 23rd 51, 24th 50.
2. Drivers that don’t participate in a heat race or B feature will receive no points. Driver must take green flag in an event in order to receive non qualifier points.
3. Should a driver qualify for ‘B’ feature or ‘A’ feature, and not be able to compete, they will be scored in last position and receive points accordingly. (Promoter’s discretion whether vacated position is filled in feature by next qualified driver.)
4. Driver changes are allowed with notification of officials. Driver giving up car will receive non qualifier points. Driver changing cars must start at rear of event. Failure to notify Badger Mod Tour officials (Scorer/Series Manager/Race Day Director) will result in disqualification.
