This year the Stars present Kick-Start, a great O-CUP By Day, AND Starry Night, an O-CUP After Dark! O-CUP points will be awarded separately for each race, so it is a great chance to leap to the front of the O-CUP standings.
</p><p>Both Kick-Start and Starry Night follow the O-CUP handicap rules. Participants have the option to skip checkpoints (or dog bones in the case of the Starry Night) in each box equal to their handicap point total. Handicap points for this year's course will be awarded as follows:
</p><ul>
<li>6 - Women 12 or younger, Men 12 or younger, Women 65 or older</li>
<li>5 - Women 14 or younger, Men 14 or younger, Women 55 or older, Men 75 or older</li>
<li>4 - Women 16 or younger, Men 16 or younger, Women 45 or older, Men 65 or older</li>
<li>3 - Women 19 or younger, Women 35 or older, Men 55 or older</li>
