Rounds & format
The competition consists of two main rounds. Round 1 is a qualifying round where pilots navigate a simpler course to demonstrate their control and speed. Top performers from the qualifier advance to Round 2, the final race, which features a more complex and challenging obstacle course.
How entries are judged
The primary judging criterion is the time taken to complete the race course. The pilot with the fastest lap time in the final round wins. Penalties, in the form of added time, are given for missing gates, hitting obstacles, or violating safety rules. The final score is a combination of lap time and any accrued penalties.
Selection process
Selection for the final round is based on the performance in the initial qualifying round. Pilots with the fastest and cleanest runs (fewest penalties) will be selected to advance and compete for the top prizes.
