About this event

PreAdvertisement Section:

The Central Roadracing Association (CRA) is a 50+ year old non-profit organization run entirely by a volunteer board and staff. Our mission is to provide the safest, most affordable, and fun environment in support of the sport of motorcycle road racing. Everything we do in terms of financials is designed to support that mission. Our race fee structure, awards program, advertising, volunteer incentive programs, and safety funds are all closely maintained and managed to grow the sport, increase safety, and ensure longevity of the organization itself.


 

Brainerd International Raceway is the largest racetrack in the Upper Midwest and may offer the most diverse motorsports schedule anywhere. With a world-class drag strip and two road course configurations (one is 2.5 miles and the other is 3.1 miles), BIR hosts drag racing, road racing, endurance racing, Superbike racing, drifting and autocross competitions, cruising events, and car shows. It even has a small lake in the campground for watercross, where snowmobiles race on open water.

  1. TEAMS.
    1. Number of Riders. A team consists of either two or three riders. Teams may consist of any combination of experts and novices.

    3. Timing of Team Formation. A team may be formed at any time during the season, but can only score points for races occurring after formation.

Riders are eligible to be added to a team under Section (d)(i) or (d)(ii) only if they have not been part of another team that season. The added rider can score points for the team only in races that occur after being added to the team. A replaced rider under Section d(ii) is ineligible for further points-scoring that season.
