Do you guys like the multiple B-main format or do you like a C-Main, 1 B-Main, and then the A? I personally don't like the Multiple format but that is just me.
Without thinking about it on my own.....what is the difference between running a C compared to two B's?

If you run the C and transfer, you then have to run the B also. More wear and tear on car. C's typically have more cautions. Just to name a few things.

Tim,

In a C Main/B Main format if you have five 10 car heats the top 3 would transfer to the feature, 4th thru 6th would transfer to the B Main, and 7th thru 10th would transfer to the C Main.

The top 5 finishers of the C Main would transfer to the tail of the B Main. The top 5 finishers of the B Main would transfer to the tail of the feature.

I personally think 1 B-main can be a lot more competitive/entertaining than running 2 from a fans standpoint. It seems that whenever Kokomo has 2 Sprint Car B's, that one is very competitive and the other the top 2 will check out. Sometimes that is not the case. I'd rather see 16 guys battle for 4 spots compared to two 8 car B-mains battling for 2 spots. Hope that makes some kind of sense, lol.

My guess, from the drivers standpoint, they like the multiple format because it is less cars to deal with and less wear and tear on the car.

How did Logan Jarrett look on the track? First time racing in a Sprint Car tonight I believe.

Also, who is Justin Marvel driving for?

Thanks.

So if you transfer out of the second B you are in the feature and don't have to run the second B main?

IAnother mistake by me......if you transfer out of the second B main are you in the feature without running another B main?
