After a very successful and fun 2013, the XC Rampage series returns with slightly earlier dates so we avoid the cold at the Finale Night race. Fast racing for one hour plus one lap around the race proven course at Checkendon. A pan flat course means no resting as you keep the power down for an hour of pain. Relaxed racing, perfect for first timers and all over in time for Sunday lunch!
Round 1 31 August
Round 2 21 September
Round 3 5 October
Night Race 25 October
Several changes to the format of racing this year.
We were so encouraged by the Night Race turnout last year that we've decided to make the Night Race part of the series and earns the same points as all other rounds. Its a great way to close the season.
The timetable has been adjusted to allow a later start for the kids races at the day races.
We've added Kids races at dusk for the Night Race so they can be part of the Series. The Kids races will be at 5pm so before sunset at 5:50pm. Youth and Juvenile will race into the dark at 6pm with the main races at 7pm.
Pre-entry now closes at 5:30pm on the day before the race so you can be sure of getting your place after checking the weather.
Course updated with new sections so laps will be slightly longer.
Open category removed to encourage more age and ability category racing. New racers should enter Sport category which now has no upper age limit.
Overall a more streamlined and relaxed format to keep the Series fresh.
