Tiebreaker Policy
If a tie exists at the conclusion of the Pingel NHRA Top Fuel Motorcycle Series season, it shall be resolved as follows. If, after step one is followed a tie still remains, additional steps are to be followed until tie is broken.
1. Rider with most “head to head” victories during season wins tie.
2. Rider with most rounds won during season wins tie.
3. Rider with quickest average of their best qualifying elapsed-times during the season wins tie. In a situation where one rider ran less events than the other rider, the average is to be based on the lesser number of events (for example, rider A runs 6 events and rider B runs 7 events, rider A’s average is to be based off his/her best 6 events). Should a tie still exist, average of qualifying speeds will be used.
