CMRC Announces Additional Rule Changes for 2015 Rockstar Energy Drink MX Nationals

Additional Rule Changes for CMRC Pro Nationals

Restrictions for MX2 Class
Riders that finished in the top 20 overall at the AMA Outdoor Nationals (250 and 450) or FIM GPs (MXGP/MX2/MX3) will not be eligible to compete in the MX2 Pro/Am class. This would apply for all riders within the past five years. Overall standings in AMA Supercross does not apply.

Second Bike
Riders will be permitted to use a second bike to race at each national. If one bike has a mechanical failure in practice, a qualifier or first moto, the rider may use a second bike providing it has gone through tech inspection on the previous day to the National.

New Points Structure
Points will be awarded to top the 25 per moto. The intention of this change is to reward points to privateers that travel the nationals but finish outside of the top 20. This would also encourage more local riders to compete at the national level and participate in a greater number of events.
