Format

Drivers will be randomly drawn into heat groups. These heat groups will also be used as qualifying groups.

The qualifying groups will then be placed into sub-groups (based on seeding) within their qualifying group to participate in a combined Hot lap/Time trial session. There will be a maximum of 5 cars on track at a time. The sessions will be 4 laps. The sub-groups will run consecutively with the order determined by a random draw which will be used across all qualifying groups.

Example: 8 car heat
Qualifying group split into two sub-groups; a and b determined by seeding the drivers A random draw will be conducted to determine which sub-group (a or b) qualifies first, which will be applied across all Qualifying groups.

A one heat format will be in use – an invert of six (6) based on qualifying times will be used.

NOTE: Should entries be lower than required, each venue reserves the right to return to a two-heat format. In this instance, the first round of heats will be lined up based on qualifying times, with a qualifying inversion of 10 (12 car heats) or 8 (10 car Heats). The second round of heats will be determined by inverting the first round draw and moving rows to different heats. Those cars qualifying outside of the inversion will remain at the tail of the field.

There will be four (4) cars to transfer from the C-Main to the rear of the B-Main and six (6) cars to transfer from the B-Main to the rear of the A-Main. The A-main will consist of 20 cars.

All heat races will be contested over 10 racing laps, where a C-Main is required the C-Main will be 10 laps and the B-Main 15 laps. If No C-Main is required the B-Main will be 20 laps with the A-Main to be 30 laps.

There will be no reserves for the C, B or A Main.

All formats are subject to potential change at the discretion of the management/promotors of each venue.

The following example is based on 4 heats, if there are more than 48 cars the time trial points will be grouped in blocks of 5 instead of 4 etc.

To split any cars on equal points the car that has recorded the fastest lap during time trials, using the transponder system, will be deemed the higher qualifier.

Top point scorer has choice of starting in position 1 or 2 in the “A” Main.

All Sprintcars are to run effective mufflers at each track, MAXIMUM 95 D.B.A. A noise meter will be in use at all three venues, Avalon, Mt. Gambier and Warrnambool. Any car exceeding this level faces disqualification from that particular nights racing.
