The race format will be as follows:

Friday Night

---Qualifications - 200 points are awarded for quick timer, 198 for second quick, 196 for third, etc.
(Only the top 50 qualifiers make the heats, the rest are put in the last chance heats in which the first eight finishers will fill the back
of that night's C feature (starting in the sixth row)).

---Last Chance Heats (for drivers out of the top 50 in Qual.) – 50 points
awarded to the winner, 47 for 2nd, etc.

---Heats - 100 points are awarded for the heat winner, points go down by three: 97, 94, 91, 88, etc.Heats are totally inverted (10). This sets up the best racing of the week. Top four finishers go to A, next four to B, last two to C.

Features line up by points high points on the pole.
---C feature – Top two finishers go to back of the B. Third place is worth 96 pts., 2nd is 94, etc.
---B feature – The top four finishers transfer to the tail of the A. The B awards 142 points for fifth, 140 for sixth and so on by twos.

---A feature - The A feature points are the same as time trials: 200, 198, 196 etc. This explains how a driver can not make the A, but
if he timed well may have more points than someone who did make the A. Ties in points go to the quicker timer.

A perfect score (quick time, heat win, feature win) is 500.
