                                                 Regional Points
The NWOK is broken into 5 Regions. Western, North Central, Central, South Central, and Eastern. Each region will crown a NWOK Regional Champion. Because every track in a given region could end up racing a different number of races, an average of a racer's points will be used to determine Regional Champions. For example, Track A has 12 races. If a racer at that track has accumulated 408 points, they would divide that total by the number of races the track had (12), and get their average of 34. Track B had 15 races and a racer at that track had 513 points. They would take their total and divide by 15 to get an average of 34.2 points. If a guy decided to race 7 races at each track for a total of 14 races and had a total of 478 points, he would divide his total by 14 to get 34.1 points. If another person raced every race at both tracks for a total of 27 races, they would divide their point total by 27. If a person raced fewer races than the minimum number of races for any track in the region, they must divide their total by that tracks total number of races. For example, a driver only raced in 10 events and accumulated 366 points. However, the track with the fewest events in that region was track A with 12. That driver would take their 366 and divide by 12, since 12 races was the minimum number of races ran at a track in that region. That driver would then have an average of 30.5 points. If you have a bad night at one track, you may want to go to another track to race an additional race to get your average bumped up.

Regional points will be based off of A-Main finish only. For an A-Main with 10 or more karts, the points will be 40 for a win, and drop by 1 for each subsequent position. If a track runs a B-Main, then the top finisher not in the A-Main will earn 1 point less than the last place A-Main finisher. Drivers that do not take the green flag in at least one heat race to qualify for the A-Main, will not receive any points.

If less than 10 entries on a given night, for each car under 10, 1 point less is awarded for the feature finish. For example, if only 6 cars entered, the maximum points for the feature win would be 4 less than 40, or 36 points since there were 4 less cars than 10. The point break down in this case would be 36, 35, 34, 33, 32, and 31 points.

If a tie should occur, the driver with the most sanctioned 40 point wins would be the winner. Then 2nds, etc..
