Thursday and Friday’s prelim nights will begin with single-car qualifying. The heat races will line up with the top eight cars inverted from qualifying. Points will be awarded for qualifying results, heat race results, and feature results.

After qualifying and heat races are completed, the top 20 in points will lock into the 24-car A-Main that night. The top 16 cars will be inverted. 

Positions 21-36 in points will head to the B-Main. All drivers below 36th in points will head to the C-Main, with the top four finishers transferring into the B-Main. The top four finishers in the B-Main will transfer into the A-Main.

Points will be totaled across both Thursday and Friday night’s preliminary events.

On Saturday, things are different. The top four in cumulative points from both nights will lock into the A-Main and the Pole Shuffle. 

Positions five through 44 will be put into four qualifiers. The top four from each qualifier will advance to the A-Main. Finishers fifth through eighth will go to the B-Main. The ninth and tenth-place finishers will go to the C-Main.

The winners of each qualifier will also compete in the Pole Shuffle, which will determine the starting order for the top eight positions of the A-Main.
