Also, please be aware that the SRRS responsibility is ONLY to provide the manufacturer with your name and address, and not to pay the award. All cars finishing the feature races will be checked by series personal for the appropriate decals.

Drivers will be required (mandatory) to carry decals of primary series sponsors in order to be eligible for SRRS posted awards including point fund monies.

Any other SRRS sponsor decal that is carried on the car must be affixed prominently. There is no compulsion to carry any other sponsor's decal, however, it is worth bearing in mind that sponsor only put money into the series to gain exposure for their products—no exposure will eventually mean no money and therefore smaller purses for races and championships.

Technical Inspection
Technical Inspection will be held at an area designated by the Technical Inspectors, and all cars must sign in and pass through Technical Inspection before going out onto the track. No Exceptions. Failure to follow this procedure may result in forfeiture of
Qualifying Time. When the car is presented for Technical Inspection the hood must be removed.

All race cars are subject to be inspected by the SRRS Technical Director at any time during the event

Hot Laps
All Drivers will be allowed one (1) Hot Lap Session Hot Laps will be conducted in Groups in order, as per the Draw. Drivers/Teams are responsible for knowing what Group the Driver/Team is in. Lineups will be posted at track posting stations in the pits. Drivers must Hot Lap in their assigned Groups. If a Driver does not make it to the staging area in time for his assigned session, that driver will not be allowed to Hot Lap. No Exceptions.

Qualifying
As with Hot Laps, Drivers must qualify in order, as per the Draw. Drivers who arrive late or are not at staging on time will receive only ONE lap of qualifying.

Cars will either be weighed before or after Qualifying, depending on the layout of the current race track, this will be determined by the Officials.

All cars that are judged to weigh light crossing the scales after qualifying, will lose their Qualifying Time/Points and will start at the back of a heat race or B-Main Race. If there is more than one car that has been judged light, those Drivers will be lined up at the back of the heat races or B-Mains by the Qualifying Order. Pull car off scales (1) time and zero scales.

Three groups or less and the top three in each group will be locked in from qualifying. Four or more groups and the top two in each group will be locked in from qualifying.
Cars will be allowed two consecutive green flag laps for time trails.

If you are unable to make your qualifying spot you must notify a series official and you will be allowed 1 lap at the end of qualifying.

Race Format
Drivers will qualify and run heat races with their specified group based on qualifying drawing position. Drivers qualify and heat race with the SAME group. Number of heats/qualifying groups used will be based on car count with a goal of a maximum of twelve (12) cars per group. Qualifying will determine the line-ups for heat races within each group.

Starting lineup for each group/heat will have the fastest qualifier on the pole, 2nd fastest on the outside front row, 3rd fastest on the inside second row, etc.

Heats will be run in order based on each qualifying group's driver with the lowest qualifying time - with heats sorted in ascending order by the lowest elapsed time within that group.

The qualifying group that has the driver with the lowest elapsed time will be heat number 1. The remaining qualifying group that has the driver with the next lowest elapsed time will be heat number 2, and so on.

If a driver is locked in to the race and has to use a back-up car to start the feature, they must start at the tail-end of the field. However, the back-up car must retain the same number. This does not apply to a motor change.

Any driver locked in to the feature that unable to attend a race due to a rain out can start a substitute driver in his car, but they must start in the rear of the field. The original driver will be awarded zero points.

In the event a field or partial field is locked in, but is rained out. The driver must have the same number when returning for the new date.

Provisional’s
Provisionals available only to the top 15 in points, if no provisionals are needed additional spots will be filled from previous heat race finishes.

The promoter has the option of starting a 25 car for the track provisional.

If you use a provisional you must go two races before you are eligible for another provisional, unless no other competitor in the top 15 in points is in need of said provisional.
