Sportsman Qualifying at National Event
 

Im looking at some of the event schedules and had a question. Do the .90 classes get 1 or 2 qualifying sessions?

Re: Sportsman Qualifying at National Event
 

Usually 2, weather permitting. But the current 3 day schedules include first round on Friday as well so there sure aren’t any guarantees.

I was looking at the Houston schedule and it only says Qualifying on Friday at 9:30 and doesnt list a second session. There are very low quota of cars in those groups.

They’ve posted the Dallas detailed schedule earlier today. You won’t be able to tell what the detailed schedule is for Houston until the Tuesday prior to the event. Lower quotas don’t necessarily equate to more Q runs.

Dallas has 2 qualifiers and R1 on Friday, I would assume Houston will be very similar

Re: Sportsman Qualifying at National Event
 

They have one posted for Houston also. Will it change between now and then?

Ok, well guess ill sit back and wait lol. Was hoping to go with a friend and get in to park on Tuesday with him. Looks like no sportsman parking until Wed or Thur

Re: Sportsman Qualifying at National Event
 

This is NOT the "detailed run schedule" for the event. This is a general schedule. The detailed schedule come out on the Mon/Tues before the event.

My buddy just got an email with the schedule and they said stacking doesn't start until wed at 8 am and then parking Thursday. How does the stacking work?

Re: Sportsman Qualifying at National Event
 

Pretty much stack outside the gate and depending on the track and how they work it they normally give you a shoe polish number on your truck, motorhome, etc. When the gates open they normally start with the first shoe polished number in line and park them and continue till they are completed. As the day gets later on sometimes you see people that came in behind you getting parked before you as the numbers aren't always followed as we found out in Indy last year. It's basically a big giant cattle heard and they will park you in a designated area, so being a sportsman you'll be pretty far back as the Pro's, TS, TS, Comp, Alky get the asphalt and anything else closer to the staging lanes.
