Finishes at ALL EFTA sanctioned races (not just championship events) will be tracked, and promotion points will be awarded each time you finish in the top 15% of your ability category (Sport or Novice). When you have accumulated enough promotion points, you will be automatically promoted to the next ability category.
Elite racers do not receive promotion points and no other classes can receive promotion points to become an Elite. Promotion points are only assigned to Sport and Novice categories. Anyone may race in the Elite category, although promotion points will not be assigned for that race.
You may also elect to move to the next ability category yourself by simply entering any EFTA event in the next category. Once you have raced in a more advanced category you may never again race in an easier category. In other words, if you enter an event as a Sport rider, you may never again enter an EFTA event as a Novice. There is an exception to this rule: anyone may race/ride in the Elite or Touring category for one or more races and still return to his/her original category and class. However, if you place well in the Elite category, expect LOTS of peer pressure to remain in the Elite category.
Championship points earned in one ability category will not be transferred to the next. If you start the season as a Sport racer and are promoted mid-season, any points earned as a Sport rider go towards your position in the Sport Championship, and points gained as an Expert towards the Expert Championship and so on. Your championship points stay in the category and class in which they were earned |
