FEATURE EVENT QUALIFYING AND SUBSTITUTION RULES

           1.      Qualifying

A.     All drivers allowed to compete in an A feature event must qualify by finishing a qualifying race, either a heat race or B feature, in a qualifying position.   In the event no B feature is held all drivers entered shall be eligible to start the A feature event.  

2.      Car Substitutions

A.     A driver may drive any car in their assigned position in a heat race.  This means if your car is damaged in hot laps or is otherwise unable to race you may substitute another car prior to your heat race without penalty.  No car may be driven in more than one heat race or more than one B feature.

B.     Any driver may drive a substitute car (any car other than the car they drove in their assigned heat race) in a B feature by notifying the officials of the substitution and starting in the back of the B feature.  If the driver qualifies through the B feature they will still be required to start at the back of the A feature.  If the borrowed car was previously qualified for the A feature by way of a heat race the original driver forfeits that qualifying position when car is borrowed to start the B feature and that driver may not attempt to qualify again.

C.     Any driver already qualified for the A feature may switch to any other car already qualified for the A feature by notifying the track officials and starting at the rear of the A feature event.  The driver surrendering his/her qualified car may not attempt to qualify again.  If the car you wish to borrow is a B feature qualified car, you may forfeit your A feature qualifying position to attempt to qualify that car for the A feature.  If you qualify through the B for the A, you must still start at the rear of the A feature.

D.     Only cars assigned a heat race starting position are eligible to be used borrowed cars.

 3.      Driver Substitutions

A.     Only qualified drivers may start a feature event in a qualified car.  After completing one scored lap a substitute driver may enter the car, but all points and purse will be assigned to the starting driver.

 4.      Points and Purse

A. All cars listed in the starting field of an A feature event will receive points for that event regardless of their starting the event.  In order to receive feature event purse the driver must complete a minimum of one parade lap under the vehicle’s own power.  Failure to do so will mean only tow money will be paid.
