Sorry for not expanding further on format. ( As it was the post was rather long)
We pull a pill at sign in, and then line up both features from that pill (no heats). The first feature is straight up, the second feature is a total invert of the first feature lineup.
From those results, we use a start/finish matrix to award the points. The total points from both features gives you your overall placings for the night.
This helps in many different ways and importantly, normally creates two feature winners each night so it adds FUN to two teams with victory lane pics etc. ( Also helps provide more opportunity for victory pics for sponsors etc)
The passing points matrix is unique in that it is weighted that passes at the front of the field are worth more than the rear.
We found that the heat races were becoming glorified hot laps after the first 2-3 laps and this way even with smaller car counts, all the cars are on the track for every race which helps create FUN !
The down side is we limit it to 30 cars... but with car counts not exactly setting the world on fire, we should be good for a few more years ..
