Special Race Info
Our track hosts local single point races and specific multi-point events and has the ability to earn additional events to be run within each year. Riders earn points each time they race at our track as well as other tracks sanctioned by BMX Canada/USA BMX. These points will be accumulated for an overall placing at the end of the season. Please check "Point" page for more information about Points. There are opportunities to race at many different levels and competitions. Following is a list of the different racing series that a rider may enter.
Provincial Championship Race Series (PCR) - Provincial Championship Race Series (PCR) will be conducted in each Province, that possesses at least one (1) sanctioned track. Each year a number of PCR races are held across the province to determine overall age group champions in each Province and distribute award rankings to eligible riders. This is a next level of racing where riders compete a Provincial Championship Series ranking. To be eligible to earn the BC Provincial Championship title and/or a provincial number plate designation, riders must race at least 4 PCR events in BC as well as the PCR Finals in BC to qualify for BC title.
The 2022 BC PCR Final will be hosted at Langley BMX and it will offer triple points! Click here for the PCR race schedule in BC. Please check "XIX. State & Provincial Championship Series" section on the BMX Canada Rulebook for more detailed information.

** Riders can earn an additional bonus point for every two (2) single point races ran on or before July 15th, with a maximum of four (4) bonus points being awarded.
