The event will roll out with the following format. Friday drivers will draw pills setting the time trail order. Currently, six heats are planned and will follow Series procedures by inverting the fastest four cars in each heat with all other drivers lining up linearly filling out the balance of each heat event.

From the heat finishing positions; first (1) and third (3) will advance to the first dash on Saturday while positions second (2) and fourth (4) advance to second dash Saturday. Heat finishing positions fifth (5) and seventh (7) go to Saturday’s first 50-lap Qualifier while heat finishing positions sixth (6) and eighth (8) advances to second 50-lap Qualifier.

Drivers finishing in heat positions ninth (9) though twelfth (12) will be placed in Friday’s King’s Jewelry’s “Last Chance Qualifiers” race presented by ARTCARVED. The winner will go to Saturday Sunoco Race Fuels, first 50-lap qualifier presented by Bazell Race Fuels while second place driver advancing to the Goddard Performance Parts second 50-lap qualifier presented by Warrior Chassis. MACS Provisionals will fill the 26th starting spots in each of the Twin-50 Qualifiers.

Drivers will draw for their starting spots in the dashes with all the heat winners drawing for the top 6 spots in the first dash while the second place finishers drawing for the top six spots in the second dash. Third place heat finishers will draw for positions 7-12 in the first dash while fourth place heat finishers will draw for 7-12 in the second dash. How the drivers finish in their respective dashes will determine the top six rows in each of the 50-lap Qualifiers.
