There will be a single qualifier Saturday evening to establish a qualifying order. In eliminations on Sunday morning a 32 or less car field will be laddered on a sportsman ladder. A 33 or greater car field is randomly paired until the field reaches 32 cars or less. When the field reaches 32 cars or less a sportsman ladder for the number of cars remaining will be used to pair the cars.

Car placement on the ladder will be determined based on closest to index (without breaking out) for the last round that was randomly paired. 



Each 5th Gen. Camaro Challenge competitor will have the option to run and compete in the LSX True Street Challenge category on Saturday at no additional charge. For rules and regulations pertaining to True Street please refer to the 2010 NMCA official Rule Book or log on to www.nmcadigital.com/rules.

If you come in on Saturday you want to get there as early as possible see schedule for gate times. If you plan to run true street you need to have the car teched and ready to go before the 11am meeting for true street. I suggest you get to the track when the gates open. True street will be allowed a time trial with the Bracket/LSX time trials at 9:15. The final qualifing session for the LSX index classes is 5pm. In order to run with the true street class you must attend the meeting and participate in the cruise both are part of that competition.

[Stay Marine]
