TULSA, Okla. (August 24, 2016) — The 6th annual tribute to the lives of Jesse Hockett and Daniel McMillin at Missouri’s Lucas Oil Speedway is setting up to be a massive event for fans and drivers alike, as the 2016 edition will feature three full nights of racing with the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network, Speedway Motors ASCS Warrior Region presented by Impact Signs, and the BOSS Chassis W.A.R. Sprint Cars.
Scheduled for September 22-24, 2016 at the Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Mo. the Lucas Oil ASCS presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network will see three full nights of racing with event points setting up the Top 8 in Saturday’s $10,000 to win A-Feature lineup.
The Format:
All drivers will compete on both qualifying nights as combined points from Heat Races, Qualifiers, B-Mains, and A-Mains will set the lineup for Top 8 on Saturday night. Any tie in points will be broken by Friday’s passing point totals. ASCS Format will be utilized with draw in for Heat Race starting position and passing points to determine drivers who advance to Qualifiers and B-Mains.
Each night, Top 30 in Passing Points from Heat Races will move into Qualifiers. Remainder will fall to the tail of the night’s “B” Features. Top 18 will be inverted with the highest point earner from Heat Races starting sixth in the first Qualifier. Qualifiers will be 8 laps each. Passing Points will be utilized with the driver’s total points combined with their Heat Race total. The top 16 in combined Passing Points will advance to the A-Feature. Drivers will not redraw for their starting position. Lineup is straight up by the combined Passing Point total. The remainder will fall into B-Features. Number of B-Features is dependent upon the number of cars. 40-50 cars means remaining drivers will drop into two “B” Features. 51-60 will drop into three “B” Features. Lineup will be done by passing point totals with 17th going to the pole of the first “B” Feature, 18th to the pole of the second “B” Feature, etc.
If one B is needed, the top 6 drivers will advance to the A-Feature. If two B’s, then the top three, if three B’s, then the top two.
Following the completion of Friday’s program, event points will be totaled with the Top 8 locked in, straight up, into Saturday’s A-Feature. All other drivers will redraw for Heats and Qualifiers on Saturday with the Top 8 in combined Passing Points advancing, straight up, into position’s 9-16 in the A-Feature, all other drivers will fall into B-Mains.
