Scoring and Points system.
In order to try and keep the field competitive and fair we have introduced a one car rule.
A car and driver qualify as a team. Each driver can qualify only one car. No driver will be permitted to change cars after taking the green flag of his qualifying practice. All cars must take the green flag in one practice in order to be eligible for the feature for that night. Furthermore a driver cannot change cars and move his number to that car for points gain. Whichever number the car started with for the night is what it will be scored as. The only exception to this rule is if a driver moves to another car the points will go to that car and number that was registered for the night not to his number for points gain.
Back up drivers
In the event that you cannot make it to the track due to other obligations you have the right to have a backup driver drive your car for the night. The points will be scored to your car in order to keep you in the points chase. However the backup driver will start scratch for the entire night. He will start rear of the field in both heats and Feature event for that night. Cost is $50 for back up driver.
Drop night.
Ever driver is entitle to drop two night from the season. This allows for two bad night or a night that you may not be able to make it. The points drop will happen 3 races before the end of the season. This means that the last 2 races of the season there is no mulligan left. Everyone will know where they are in points and the last 2 nights are final points.
Points system
PositionPointsPositionPoints
Points are awarded by finish. In order to qualify for feature race you must take the green flag to start
the race. DNF points are awarded by finishing order. If you go out first then you are awarded last place points.
