If two or more competitors finish the season tied in total points, the tie is broken using the following criteria in order:

  1. Most race finishes: The competitor who officially finished the highest number of races during the season.
  2. Earliest season attendance: The competitor who participated in an official race earliest in the schedule.
  3. Highest finishing position: The competitor with the best individual race finish (or the most wins, followed by second-place finishes, etc.).
  4. Earliest top finish: If still tied, the competitor who achieved their highest finishing position earliest in the season.

Any safe bike under 450 cc is allowed on track as long as it meets the tech requirements.

Sandy Hook Speedway has an excellent article about what to buy in order to race in the Stock 125 class here.

Riders must have a full face DOT/ECE helmet, full fingered gloves, and boots that go over the ankle. If a rider opts to use a dirtbike style helmet (must be DOT/ECE certified), they must also use goggles. We highly recommend a 1 or 2 piece leather suit, but will allow racers to race with full motocross gear (chest/back, shoulders, elbows, knees). A back protector is not required, but is highly recommended.

If you don’t have a race suit – please reach out to us via social media. We have a number of suits available as loaners for new riders.

Short answer is it depends – please reach out and ask via Facebook or Instagram before planning to camp out.
