Gp Challenge Final Gorican Saturday 29th September

Recommended Posts

A 2 man and 3 man Q/F race - winners to final

Then a 3 man S/F race - 1st and 2nd to final, 3rd eliminated.

Then a 4 man race Final with 1st and 2nd going into 2013 GP series

 

That's it -although I believe Heat 21 has 3 riders and Heat 22 has 2 riders.

 

All the best

Rob

They would have been better to use countback to establish the four riders for a run-off.

 

You can't use countback to decide something this important.

yeah, I also think that the rules for Gps and the GP challenge should be the same.

Thank you Andy P. I'll just about grasp all that an hour after the meeting or so lol. Only kidding i can see the logic but maintain countback should be used, if not for the final result, at least to get a four rider run-off.

 

I wonder if any unknowing riders in the pre-final heats will celebrate joyously when winning a race thinking they have qualified for the SGP series!

They do to decide the semi-finalists in the GP so it should be uniform. Regards. Alan.

Well, no, because they'll have the rules explained to them beforehand.

I'm sure in the last challenge I bothered checking (Vetlanda 2006(?)) they had a one-off final?

 

Anyway it would be hilarious if Dryml qualified and Woffinden and Harris couldn't/wouldn't :rofl:

Good job there's only four of them otherwise we would be waiting all night for them to sort all those extra races out.

Surely it should just be 5 extra heats?

 

R1, R2, R3,R4

R2,R3,R4,R5

R1,R3,R4,R5

R1,R2,R3,R5

R1,R2,R4,R5

 

Rotate the gates so everyone gets 1 gate 1, 1 gate 3, 1 gate 3 and a gate 4 each.
