USAC AMSOIL SPRINT CAR NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP FORMAT
Formats may be altered from base formats listed here at the discretion of the chief steward.
SUPER SIX:
The top-six in points from Thursday and Friday Night’s program will transfer directly to Saturday’s feature. Any ties in points will be broken by Friday Night’s qualifying times.
QUALIFICATIONS:
All cars (except those in the Super Six) will qualify two (2) laps. The faster of the two (2) laps will be their qualifying time. If a car misses their qualifying spot by more than three positions that car goes to the end of the qualifying line and will receive one (1) lap, that car won’t be able to start any higher than 50% of the scheduled feature field.
HEAT RACES:
There will be a total of three (3) heat races. The top-six qualifiers will be inverted. The top-four (4) in each heat race will transfer to the forty (40) lap feature event. Cars finishing 5th on back will go to the semi-feature. The 12 transfers will line up by points behind the top-six in positions 7-18. Each heat race will be ten (10) laps.
SUPER SIX DASH:
The top-six in points will be fully inverted and run a six (6) lap dash. The finishing order will determine the first three rows in the feature. The winner of the dash may choose the inside or outside of row 1.
SEMI-FEATURE:
The semi-feature will consist of all the remaining cars that have not transferred to the feature. The semi-feature lineup will be based on total points, including Saturday night’s points. The semi-feature will be twelve (12) laps. The top-six (6) finishing cars from the semi-feature will transfer to the feature.
FEATURE:
The feature will have a total of twenty-four (24) cars. The lineup for the first three (3) rows will be determined by the finishing order of the Super Six Dash. Rows 4-9 will be the cars that transferred from the heats, and they will lineup according to their total points. Rows 10-12 will be the cars that transferred from the semi-feature, and they will line up according to how they finished in the semi-feature. The feature will be forty (40) laps.
The Oval Nationals will be governed by the Official Rule Book for the USAC National and CRA Series. Once the first car is pushed off for the feature, a 45-minute clock will begin. Once the clock reaches 45 minutes, the next yellow flag will produce a red flag to allow fuel only to be added to the cars.
For provisional starters in the preliminary mains on Thursday and Friday night’s program, any points earned will only be awarded for USAC National standings and USAC CRA standings. No Oval Nationals points will be awarded for a provisional start. You must earn your way into Thursday and Friday night’s main to earn Oval Nationals points for your starting position on Saturday Night.
