Qualifying Rules & Procedures (please read carefully) TPS Time Trials will start as per race day hourly schedule. Be flexible. Be ready to take both of your 2 laps. Cars must align for Time Trials as listed above. Drivers must have working scanner on 154.570 at all times on track. Cars missing this qualifying order line may opt to re-align at rear and will receive one timed lap.

For time trial purposes only, TPS cars may go on a green track from the track entry road when signaled. After departing pits, cars should gain full speed quickly. All cars will receive green flag first time at S/F line. Cars should exit track as-soon-as possible from Turn #1, drive slowly down road, to TPS scales area.

Track Exit Rule: Failure to exit track after one cool off lap (unless instructed) will result in both laps DQed. Drivers must be alert as to whether or not they are impounded for inspection. Do not break out of impound. The Feature Race grid limit for the TPS feature race is 24 cars.

 

The following qualifying rules will be observed:

In the event of a clock failure or negative track conditions, a Qualifying re-run may be opted by TPS Officials. If there is a tie in times of best lap, ties will be broken by TPS point standings prior to July 28, then by entry date. For drivers behind the fastest 22, positions 23 & 24 will go to best in TPS points standings prior to this race. If Time Trials not held or not completed, feature race grid is set by point standings, after draw for inversions. An inversion draw will be held to determine if zero or 2 rows are to be inverted at the front of the grid. Per TPS rules, no top-off after time trials. (For TPS cars after the 25 lap Race - 21 lbs or 3 gallons top off). The THR scoreboard and PA announcements regarding TPS performance is not considered official by TPS.

 

TPS @ THR time trial record is 16.830 set by #27 Bill LaBarge (BMW/2085cc) on April 17, 2004.

 

The fastest time bettering the existing TPS record will earn 3 bonus points. Fastest non-record earns 1 point.
