ALL DIVISION RULES & FORMAT for the LoneStar ARMADILLO NATIONALS:
1. Cars (from top to bottom, in and out) must be fully LoneStar Speedway legal. Cars will be teched
nightly, so be prepared. Mufflers not required. Go to www.LoneStarSpeedway.com to view/print the
rules for your division.
2. Drivers must also have proper safety equipment installed on the car and on the driver themselves, as
per stated in each divisions rules.
2A. We will be renting transponders for the weekend. All cars in all classes must run them. This will
ensure all teams being scored correctly. You will need to rent them from us for $25/car, and that
will cover all three days of racing. It will also help us to quickly line up the races and keep the show
moving...plus it ensures your team being scored properly. There is no draw fee on any night.
2B. All drivers must have working RACECeivers. The track will have some for sale as well, in case you
don't have one. But they keep the show moving along, and we require them for all divisions.
3. You do not have to run both Thursday and Friday night. You can run one or both, it is your option.
You will not be penalized if you race both qualifying nights. Your top point night will be used to
determine your Saturday starting position. We recommend you race both Thu/Fri so you can get two
chances to either lock in or improve your points total. Your highest point total from Thursday OR
Friday will be used to line you up on Saturday night's finale.
4. If you do not run Thursday or Friday: and you show up Saturday night to race, you must pay the race
week entry fee of $125 for Modifieds or $85 for Ltd Mods and $75 Factory Stocks and tag the last
feature race, which will presumably be the B or C feature. If you do not transfer into the A feature you
do not receive tow money or NQ money. If you transfer out of the B feature, you will receive 100% of the
posted purse shown on the event flyer.
THURSDAY & FRIDAY NIGHT QUALIFYING FORMAT:
5. Sam will start parking cars on Thursday upon your arrival. Teams will be allowed into the pit area
before the pits officially open at 3pm. NO BIG HAULERS OR TRAILERS IN THE INFIELD! We may or
may not allow cars in the infield. If we do, only SMALL enclosed trailers or open trailers will be allowed,
so the fans can see the track.
6. Pits officially open at 4pm on Thu/Fri. However, the pits may open earlier than that, especially on
Thursday. ALL people in the pit area MUST have an armband from the pit shack that night. Anyone
caught in your pit area without one, will be asked to leave and your team is subject to disqualification.
7. Draw for position at 4pm. Mandatory Pit meeting at 6:50pm. The draw closes at 6:30pm. We reserve
the right to open the pits earlier on Thursday.
8. Heats will be 8 laps and the top 16 in points will go directly to the A-feature, straight up from heat
race points. The balance of the field will be split into 2-B features with the top 4 in each tagging the top
16 in heat race points. If there are over 60 cars, there may be a C-feature; at which point, the next 36 in
points will go to the two B-features, and the balance of the field to the C. 8 cars total from the C
will transfer to the B's.
8A. VERY IMPORTANT: ALL RACES WILL BE STARTED BY A WHITE CHALK LINE IN CORNER 4. THE
FRONT ROW MUST BOTH HIT THE WHITE CHALK LINE AT THE SAME TIME & KEEP A STEADY PACE
THROUGH CORNERS 3 & 4 AS WE WILL NOT TOLERATE DRIVERS THAT SPEED UP/SLOW DOWN, AS
THAT CAUSES UNNECESSARY CRASHES AND DELAYS. YOU ARE SUBJECT TO BEING SENT TO THE
BACK IF YOU DO NOT ADHERE TO THIS RULE! You must also be side-by-side, nose to tail on starts,
no 'fanning out.' First 3 restarts in a race will be Delaware style, with the leader out front and the rest of
the field behind the leader, nose-to-tail, no passing until the leader hits the chalk line.
8B. Work area. There is a chalk line in the infield just inside corner 4. If your car requires assistance,
your car must be worked on beyond that chalk line or you are subject to being put a lap down. Work
area open for the A features only.
9. The A-feature will be Modifieds: 25 laps, 24 cars; Limited Modifieds: 20 laps, 24 cars; Factory Stocks:
20 laps, 24 cars. The top 4 finishers will lock into the first 4 rows of the Saturday night championship
A-feature race. The top 4 finishers will not have any points, as they are locked into the top 4 rows
Saturday night.
10. The balance of the field (ALL remaining drivers) will have their heat points and A, B or C points
added to their heat points to determine their total points. (You only receive points for the feature race
you finish highest in. So if you are in the B and transfer to the A, you only receive A feature points.)
10A. If you choose to race both Thu/Fri night, after Friday night's race your low point night between the
two will be thrown out to establish your point total going into Saturday night. If you choose to race
Thursday or Friday (and not both), that race night will be your point total going into Saturday night.
There is no 'penalty' for racing both nights.
11. The top 6 in overall points after Thursday OR Friday will also lock into the Saturday A feature, and
will start in positions 9-14.
12. In other words, after Thursday night you can choose to come back and race on Friday and your
better points night between the two will be your official points night going into Saturday night. Even if
you are in a lock-in position you can return on Friday night to try to improve your lock in spot (other
than the winner of Thursday, of course).
SATURDAY CHAMPIONSHIP NIGHT:
13. At this point, the top 4 A-finishers from Thursday and Friday are locked into the A-feature (8 cars
total). And the top 6 point getters from Thursday OR Friday will follow those locked in cars (for a total
of 14 cars.)
14. The next 36 cars in points will be split into two B-features. The balance of the field will go to the C
feature(s). A total of 8 cars from the C will go to the B-features, which will each start 22 cars.
15. The top 5 finishers in each B will line straight up behind the 14 qualified cars for the A-feature.
(which makes 24 cars.)
16. The Saturday night Championship feature races will be 50 laps for the Modifieds, 30 laps for the
Limited Modifieds and 30 laps for the Factory Stocks. This is also a LoneStar Speedway points race for
all three race divisions. Points will be earned for your Saturday night finishing positions only. There is
no fuel stop planned for this event. All drivers that race this event will receive a total of 50 points.
17. The track reserves the right to add provisional starters to the field (and add payback for those
finishing positions, as well as holding an auction for an additional starting position; as they see fit.
WE HOPE YOU ENJOY ALL OF THE WAYS YOU CAN GET QUALIFIED FOR THIS EVENT - and we wish
each and every one of you the best of luck at the LoneStar Armadillo Nationals!
