Events 1 and 3 will be Run using a Split - Four Heat Format
The field is divided into two grids with a line on each side, each angled toward the start line. There are four run/work Heats. Vehicles are assigned to run in either the first or second half of each Heat. The plan is for each driver to run during two of the heats and work one of them. If you run Heats 1 and 3, you would work either 2 or 4 and vice versa. Two driver vehicles line up on either side at the front of the grid. When the runs start, all of the two driver cars go out (either driver) and then cars from one side of the grid go out. For the second run, that sequences is repeated (i.e., the same vehicles run again). Two driver vehicles can change drivers if they wish. It’s up to that team what order they run in. After three runs, the two driver vehicles go out again, followed by the other side of the grid (for their first runs). That sequence is repeated until that side gets three runs. It’s important to note that
two driver vehicles don’t go out more often than any other vehicle, so no advantage/disadvantage to warmer tires than single driver vehicles. After each side has three runs each, the Heat is over.
Worker changeover takes place before the start of the second Heat. The second Heat is run in the same manner as the first. At the conclusion of the second Heat, worker changeover takes place before the start of the third Heat. The third Heat is comprised of the same group of drivers/vehicle as the first Heat. So, if the course was dirty or damp for the first heat, the driver gets another chance. Normally there are three runs in the third Heat, but if there have been excessive delays during the running of the first Heat, event organizers can declare only two runs for Heats three and four. Worker changeover takes place for the beginning of the fourth heat for another three (or two) runs each.
Ladies class vehicles will be assigned to the opposite set of Heats of the open class. This has the disadvantage of the possibility of the open class driver working, while the Ladies class driver(s) is running, but it is important they run against others in their class.
If we get a low turnout for these events (fewer than 100-110), we may ask for volunteers to work twice. As said, this will be on a volunteer basis. No one will be “required” to work twice.
Run for National Class will not be available during any 4 heat format event this season, (Event 1, 2, 10, and 11). Be advised if you have credits available to you on MotorSportsReg.com, you need to use them before the last event of the year Friday, October 25th. After that date they will no longer be available. The credits cannot be used for Event #2 which is a National Tour event at Blytheville, Arkansas.
