Important Racing Information and race day schedule
Great Plains Racing would like to welcome all racers to the 2007 PWC WATERCROSS season. The APBA (American Power Boat Association) Requires all participants must be a current APBA competition member and present proof of valid membership in order to compete. APBA competition memberships are $70 per year, a single event membership can be purchased for $20. Participants can join at the races. Participants must be 16 years old to compete at APBA sanctioned events except for the Juniors Ski Stock class where riders can be 10 to 15 years old. Riders under the age of 18 must have a parent or guardian sign an APBA Minor Release form once per season.
Event Sign In
Whether pre-registered on not, every participant is required to check in, sign the waiver and release to get a wrist band. This includes all racers, holders and mechanics. Please be in line at least 20 minutes before check in closes.
Race Numbers
All riders must have two sets of race numbers with the correct color backgrounds on their boat - one on each side in the front of the watercraft. The numbers must be black, at least 8 inches high, and spaced ½ inch apart. Standard numbers without shading or outlying must be used. If scoring can not easily read your number you will not be scored. Race numbers and backgrounds are for sale at the registration.
Rider's Meeting
It is mandatory that all participants attend the rider's meeting each day that you will be racing. The rider's meeting normally takes place each morning. Roll call will be taken to insure that everyone's smiling faces will be seen bright and early each morning. A $10 fine will be charged to all riders that do not attend the rider's meeting.
Pre-Race Safety Inspection
In the interest of safety, APBA/IJSBA rules require that all watercraft receive a complete safety inspection before being allowed on the water. All watercraft must have an approved rubber nose bumper, properly working lanyard, bow eyes removed, approved intake grates and sponsons, all fuel lined zip-tied, tow loop (cable or rope) and no loose handle grips. In addition, all participants must have an approved full-face helmet and life vest in order to compete. Wetsuits, protective footwear and eyewear are highly recommended.
