How do I build my Team's Schedule?

Add Events to your Team Schedule by clicking the "Add to Schedule" link on any Event detail page. You will be prompted to select the Team you are "registering", give a name to the Squad your Team is sending and select which Division you will compete in. You can view or edit the Squad by clicking on the name of the Squad adjacent to the Event on your Team profile page or from the list of Teams on the Event detail page.

How can my Team qualify for the National Championship?

The top ranked teams in each Division will be invited to compete at Nationals in accordance with the Offical Rules.

When will entries to Nationals be awarded?

We will begin to offer invitations to top Teams starting in August, through the end of the last Event in the series. All Teams who qualify based on points after the last series event are guaranteed an invitation. When your Team receives an invitation you will have 14 days to register and pay for Nationals. If you decline, your team will only be eligible for a roll down slot, should you change your mind.

Can Racers from more than one Team race together and earn points for each Team?

No. Points are allocated to Teams not Racers. While Racers are free to join and compete with multiple Teams, points cannot be split between Teams.
