Windom, MN (August 31, 2015) – The format for the FVP National Sprint League Jackson Nationals this Friday and Saturday, September 4 and 5 has been announced! Drivers will have to be on their game starting in qualifying on Friday for their best shot at the $25,000 top prize handed out Saturday night!
Points will be accumulated through qualifying, heat races and the main event on Friday night. The top twelve drivers in points at the end of Friday night will lock themselves into the first six rows of Saturday’s feature.
Their work doesn’t end there, however! Their starting position in those six rows will be determined by points that will also be included in Saturday qualifying and heat races. To start on the pole Saturday night, a driver will have to perform well on both nights!
Drivers not locked into the top twelve for Saturday night, will get a fresh start in points on Saturday! ALL drivers will race. The twelve drivers who have locked themselves into Saturday night’s main event will accumulate points and add them to their Friday points to see where they line up in the first six rows.
Remaining drivers will start over on Saturday, and receive points for qualifying and their heat race. The driver with the most points will start on the pole of the B main, and all drivers will line up behind them. Twelve drivers will transfer out of the B main to Saturday night’s main event.
Every race counts! The point structure is as follows…
