The complete BeaveRun Championship Karting Series rules can be found in the 2010 Rule Book . Following are some brief facts about the classes, tires, fuel and more but it is the responsibility of the racer and/or the racers family or team to download and review the 2010 Rule Book and abide by the set rules.

2010 Points System
The championship points will be based on a drivers best 10 of 14 races. Each drivers best 10 point totals will be added together to determine season standings. To be eligible for awards a driver must compete in at least 9 races. Drivers entering the GLSS race will be eligible to use the points form their best finish to replace one regular points race finish.
For the 2010 season we will follow the WKA national points system once again - the complete chart can be found in the 2010 Rule Book.
- Drivers will receive 0 points if they are DQ'd, do not cross the scales, fail post tech, etc. If DQ'd for an unsportsmanlike behavior the driver will receive 0 points for that event and not be able to drop that event.
- Combined classes will be grided based on qualifying time irregardless of class, but scored separate, unless otherwise directed by the race director.
Attention Cadet Class
The Cadet class will be split into two run groups and scored as one. Cadet A and B. The top finisher in Cadet B will receive points for one position below the last place finisher of Cadet A. If there are 20 cadet drivers 8 in A and 12 in B the winner of group B will receive 9th place points (90+20=110). Drivers in Cadet A will receive points based on total entries in Cadet A and B.
Placement in Cadet A or B will be at the discretion of the race director. The race director will consider past performance, qualifying times, and overall field in determining who and how many drivers will be in each group.
Tire rule:
The Bridgestone YKC is the spec tire for all classes for the 2010 season. The only exceptions will be the Kid Kart class which runs open tires and the Clone class which must run the YKC but no new tires are allowed on grid during any qualifying or race session for this class. Rotax classes will be required to run their spec Mojo tire.
For all other tires used, the rule is as follows - if you are not on YKC tires your qualifying times will be disqualified and you will start the pre-final from the tail of the field. If you are not on the YKC in the pre-final you will be disqualified and start the final from the tail of the field. If you are not on the YKC in the final you will be disqualified and scored at the end of the field.
In order to keep with the spirit of the cost saving intent of using a spec tire, no "sticker" or brand new tires will be allowed for the feature races. Tires must show some previous wear on the grid otherwise a penalty will be assessed for starting the feature on new tires. There is no penalty for starting qualifying or the heat on "stickers."
Bridgestone Tires are available through most of the local dealers. Turn1 ProSports, the Karting ProShop at BeaveRun, will have the spec tire in stock for all races. Suggested Pricing will be $195/Senior $190/Junior $185/Cadet
