VORS Scoring Method
*** VORS uses official race results from each events race director. Any questions related to race results need to be directed to that race's director
XC - Once official race results are received any skill-level subsets based on age will be combined (see example below) to create an overall skill-level standing. If a skill-level based category has a difference of distance, overall VORS results will be ranked on longest distance achieved, then finish times.
* Example (Individual Races subsets may vary): Overall Expert Men = Expert Men finish times (19-30) + Expert Men finish times (31-44) + Expert Men finish times (45+)
# Virtual Pro Cat - Competitors in this category will race in Expert Cat. VORS will breakout finish times to create this categories standings.
XXC - any subsets (skill-level, age, etc.) will be combined to create Overall Men and Women Standings based on distance and/or finish times
!! Points will be awarded based on overall category placement. First place will receive 1 point. Second place will receive 2 points. Third place will receive 3 points and so forth up to 20th place. Should a category have additional placements, everyone will receive 20 points.
!!! No crossover points from XXC to XC or XC to XXC. Competitors can only earn points and race credits competing in their chosen category: Expert, Sport, Singlespeed, Beginner, XXC. Competitors can sign up for an XC Cat and XXC Cat.
!!! DNF - Did Not Finish - Race credit / 25 race points
!!! DNS - Did Not Show - No credit / No points received
