Rider Bike
 

Snell approved helmet.

Supermoto or Road race leathers. (full or two piece).

Leather riding gloves. (no holes).

Riding boots. (road race, motocross or supermoto style).

Motocross gear is acceptable, with elbow and knee pads.

Under armor such as the 661 PressureSuit orTroy Lee Designs Leather Speed Jacket.

 

 

All motorcycles must have front and rear Axle Sliders, Hand Guards and Foot Peg Sliders. No Exceptions.

All motorcycles must have a 6oz or greater catch can, with all gasoline vents from the carburetor securely attached to it. ( these are commercially available, or can be made from a 6 oz container that is compatible with gasoline.

If it's your first time at the track and your not sure if your bike is track ready, contact Craig, Eddie or Andrew and they can tell help you out. It is very important that we protect the track surface from any and all damage.

Stock or 'Quiet' muffler. We can't afford to have loud exhaust at these tracks during a practice session. It's the quickest way to lose a track.

 

 

PKRA Pit Rules:

The pits at PKRA are classified as a 'Cold Pit'. This means no riding in the pits. You may start your engine and walk to the Hot Pit.

Do not speed in the Hot Pit. There can be pedestrians and small bike riders in the Hot Pit. Use common sense.

P1 Rules:

There will be NO riding at all in the cold pits.  That includes your supermoto/mini/or bicycles.  In the cold pit area, bikes MUST be pushed into the hot pit and vice versa, regardless if your engine is on or off.  

The hot pit speed limit is 5 mph, no exceptions.  

PKRA/P1 Track and Riding Rules:

When entering the track, do it in a safe manner. Don't pull in front of oncoming riders. When exiting the track, stay off line and raise your left hand to signal your leaving the track.

Always ride your line. It's the responsibility of the overtaking rider to avoid you. Chances are good they have watched you for a couple of turns and have a pretty good idea where your going to go.

Raise your left hand and slow down if you see a rider down in front of you. Do not stop in the middle of the track with your back to oncoming traffic. This is the quickest way to join the rider down. Move off the line and signal the oncoming traffic if the rider is on the track. We are our own flag men at these sessions.

Typical practice sessions are 20 minutes apiece. Often we have big bikes and little bikes. The usual format is big bikes for 20 minutes then small bikes for 20 minutes. When the track worker comes and stands at the corner of pit out and waves, that's your last lap. Exit the track the next time around.

Be safe, have fun.
