SUPER LATE MODEL FORMAT: (Updated February 12, 2024)

Series officials and venue management will be mindful of time spent on XRSS’ portion of their events. It is critical that you be on time for registration, drivers meetings, autograph sessions, and lining up for on-track events (hot laps, qualifying, heat races, features, and etc.). If a driver misses his/her staging time for an on-track, the event will begin as scheduled, and the driver will forfeit their starting position.

It is the team’s responsibility to notify XRSS officials that you are having problems and can not be on time.

  • All drivers must register each day..
  • Each day’s initial draw will determine the qualifying order for Time Trials/Qualifying for that day’s events.
