For both the Super Sprint Cars and 358 Sprint Cars, the starting positions for the Qualifying Heat races will be aligned through a blind draw at the pit gate on the day of the event. Feature lineups for both classes will be determined by heat race number one winner drawing for an inversion (1,3,6) or (1,2,4,6,8) depending on the number of heat races.
As an extra bonus, all pre-entrants will be able to draw a second time for a starting position if he or she does not like their first draw for position.

Pre-entry for the event is not mandatory, but highly encouraged to receive the benefits of pre-entering. A Pre-entry with the fee ($50.00) must be postmarked by Tuesday, November 2, 2010. All entries postmarked on or after Wednesday, November 3, 2010 will not receive the bonus winner’s pay, tow money if not qualified and choice for second pill draw. Entries will be taken on the day of the event. There is no raindate for the event, so entry fees will be refunded should the event be cancelled by weather.
