TRACK RULES & REGULATIONS

Our main priority at Golden Triangle Speedway is to maintain a Safe atmosphere. We follow WKA rules; however, IKF motors are allowed to run with WKA restrictor plates where applicable.

Upon entering the racetrack, you will be given an armband to show that your entry fee (not driver’s fee) has been paid at the gate. Everyone entering the gates MUST wear the armbands. This policy will be strictly enforced. Failure to show proof of an armband will require you to pay an additional $10.00 at the gate.
Drivers will be responsible for their conduct and the conduct of all those associated with their team while at Golden Triangle Speedway.
We will not tolerate any yelling at flag men or any track official at anytime. All official calls stand. You cannot protest an official call.
Profanity will not be tolerated. Again, this is a Family atmosphere.
NO Alcohol products in PITS Area!
Rough driving will not be tolerated. You will be disqualified (DQ).
All karts must pass pre-race inspection.
All Races will be single file starts.
Helmets with face shield, neck brace, gloves and driving suit must be worn. No Exceptions.
All racers must be registered by the end of the alloted registration time or they will start in the back.
There will not be any refunds after 1st Heat race.

You must enter and exit the track SLOWLY.

We have a cold pit. Do not drive your kart anywhere in the pit area.
The flag man will display the green on exit of Turn 4. The race begins at that point there will be no passing before you cross the before the green flag is waved. The Pole Kart sets the pace; everyone else must keep a tight formation (i.e. Nose to Tail). NO JUMPING START.
Karts CAUSING the Caution will restart in the rear
No racing to yellow. SLOW DOWN.
The Black Flag will be awarded to any kart/driver or crew member displaying unsportsmanlike conduct, for rough driving, parts loss, or fluid loss on the track. You MUST see the tech official before you can re-enter the race.

All karts MUST go through scales after each heat and feature race.
The track reserves the right to Tech at anytime.
All karts must have 4 legible numbers to be scored
All karts must have a back plate with legible number or they will not be scored
All protests must be made by a driver in that class before the kart leaves the Tech Area. Protest must be made within 10 minutes after the Feature. Protest will cost $60.00. If protested engine is legal, the owner/driver will receive $30.00 and the techman will receive $30.00. If protested engine is illegal, the owner/driver will lose points, money and trophy for that race. Protestor will be returned $60.00 and the track will retain $30.00 for the techman paid by the owner of the illegal motor. ALL DECISIONS ARE FINAL. Drivers, not tech man, are responsible for disassembling and assembling the kart.
Any person in the pit area, who has evidence of substance abuse (beer, wine, drugs) or is seen using any substance during a race meet, will be barred from participating in racing activities.
Any person involved in a fight at the track will be arrested.
