USAC AMSOIL SPRINT CAR NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP FORMAT
Formats may be altered from base formats listed here at the discretion of the chief steward
QUALIFICATIONS:
Two (2) laps to be run consecutively with the fastest lap counting as the official qualifying time.
In the event of more than 36 cars in attendance, qualifying will be split into two flights. Cars will only qualify against other cars in their flight and fill heats 1-2 or heats 3-4. For lineup purposes, the fastest qualifier in the slower flight will be considered the #2 seed. That will continue through the field and be used to grid feature lineups. Qualifying points will be awarded to the overall fastest six.
HEAT RACES:
8 laps
If there are 30 cars or less, three heat race events will be conducted. If there are 31 or more cars in attendance, four heat races will be conducted.
Cars finishing in positions 1-4 will transfer to the feature event if four heats are held. Cars finishing 1-5 will transfer if three heats are held.
Cars finishing in positions 5th on back will start in the semi-feature event if four heats are held. Cars finishing 6th on back will start in the semi-feature event if three heats are held.

C-MAIN: (If Needed)
If C-Main is run, the 14 fastest cars in qualifying that did not transfer through the heat races will line up straight-up in the semi-feature event. The 15th fastest car in qualifying, and on back, that did not transfer through the heat races will line up straight-up in the C-Main. Top-4 finishers in the C-Main will start in the last two rows of the semi-feature based on their finishing order in the C-Main.
SEMI-FEATURE EVENT:

3 Heats: Semi-feature event finishers 1-7 earn a spot in the feature event.
FEATURE EVENT:
30 laps
22 starting cars (not including earned provisionals)
First three rows are determined by qualifying time, fastest at the front, with the fastest six heat race transfers inverted in positions 1-6. If a heat race winner is not in the top-6 inversion, he or she will line up directly behind the six-car invert, straight up by qualifying time, followed by the balance of the field based on qualifying time.
