Our race is chip timed by NWEF Racing.

For 2025, we will have the racers queue single-file for the qualifying rounds. We will have a total of Two qualifying rounds.

The riders will be separated by 45 – 60 seconds to prevent as much bottlenecking as possible.

The top 12 of each division will move onto the Semi-Finals (If participation in the division is less than Twelve individuals, we will adjust admittance to the Semi-Finals as necessary)

The Semi-Finals will leave in two groups of Six. The Semi-Finals and the Finals are high octane and very competitive! The top three from each group will move onto the Finals.

The Finals will leave in a single group of Six with the top three moving to the Podium.

Groms Race

Our Groms Race consists of riders 12 and under. We have had great turnouts with our kids races and really build up good sportsmanship.

The Groms races follow the same process as the adult races but may change due to attendance.

We will adjust accordingly for the Teens race just the same as the Groms race depending on turnout.

It is about racing WITH your friends and having a great time on the track and building each other up as young Onewheel racers!
