CHICAGO SHOOTOUT FORMAT

CQDRA CHAMPIONSHIP ROUNDS WILL ALL BE RUN UTILISING A CHICAGO SHOOTOUT FORMAT.

THIS MEANS ALL BRACKETS WILL GET THREE QUALIFYING RUNS, FOLLOWED BY THREE ROUNDS OF RACING. WIN OR LOSE EACH ROUND, YOU STILL GET TO COME AROUND FOR MORE UNTIL YOU HAVE HAD ALL THREE. THIS GIVES THE RACERS GREAT BANG FOR THEIR BUCK AT THE DRAG STRIP.

PLEASE NOTE - YOU DO NOT HAVE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ALL THREE ROUNDS OF QUALIFYING, BUT YOU MUST MAKE AT LEAST ONE LEGAL QUALIFYING PASS IN ORDER TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THE RACING COMPETITION THAT DAY.

ALSO NOTE - CHICAGO SHOOTOUT IS A RACING "FORMAT", NOT A SET OF RULES. ALL RACING AT BENARABY DRAGWAY IS DONE UNDER ANDRA RULES AND REGULATIONS.

FINALS AT EACH MEET - IF YOU WIN TWO OR THREE OF YOUR RACING ROUNDS, YOU MAY BE SELECTED FOR THE ROUND OF FINALS THAT TAKES PLACE AT THE END OF THE NIGHT. THIS IS BASED ON WINS AND RUNNING AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO YOUR DIAL IN DURING ROUND 3 RACING. THIS IS OUR "COUNTBACK" METHOD TO SELECT THE FINALISTS FOR THE NIGHT.
