Walton TransCan 2012
August 14-19
For those of us who pay special attention to Canada's amateur nationals, in particular, the grand-daddy of 'em all, the Walton TransCan, we have tried to bring you important information and links here on one page. While it may be useful, nothing replaces all the info you will find at the TransCan website itself. http://www.waltontranscan.ca/
HOW TO QUALIFY
The Canadian Motorsport Racing Club (CMRC) is broken down
into 11 regions. Each region has a select number of guaranteed gate positions,
for a total of 42 riders across Canada. Riders who achieve a position equal to
or better than these guaranteed gates in the Amateur National Qualifier series,
will have successfully qualified for the Wiseco Amateur Grand National
Championship.
For example - a rider competing in the Manitoba regional
Amateur National Qualifiers who finishes 3rd in the ANQ series is guaranteed a
gate position at the GNC providing he/she/it enters on time following the entry
procedure.
Here is a list of regions and the number of gates available:
Atlantic [4]
Northern Ontario [1]
Vancouver Island [2]
Quebec [7]
South Western Ontario [11]
Saskatchewan [2]
Eastern Ontario [3]
Alberta [6]
Manitoba [3]
BC Mainland [2]
Central Ontario [1]
Total regions: 11, total gates 42.
The ranking process will determine your gate pick (position on the gate for your first moto). It will also either confirm you or place you on standby depending on the conditions you have met.
ENTRY FEES AND CALENDAR
Here is the step by step process that the event staff use to determine
if you make it into the 2011 TransCan. This is a limited entry event. The
following applies up to the point at which 42 entries per class have been
received. The only exception is the Junior MX2 and Junior MX3 where an
additional 42 entries will be accepted from lower ranked or late entries which
will create a non-championship 'B' group in each class.
