2008 National Wing 360 Rules
A) Draw for Heat Race position. The pole position on heat 1 will be the lowest number that is drawn. The pole of heat 2 will be the second lowest number drawn and alternating across heat until line-ups are completed. Cars arriving after wheel-pack has begun will be placed at the back of a heat in the next open spot.
B) Top “4” finishers in each heat race will go to the “A” main lined up by their finishing positions. Winner of heat 1 will be pole of A-main and winner of heat 2 will be outside front row before inversion is drawn.
C) Depending on total car count, number of transfers from the heats and semi-mains could vary to fit program.
D) The next 4 finishers from each heat will go to the “B” main. Lined up by their finishing order from the next heat race. There will be no inversion for the “B” main. Four transfers from the “B” will tag the rear of the “A” main.
E) All lap counts and time limits will be posted on the pit board prior to each event and will be adjusted accordingly to the total number of cars in each division.
F) We will run at least two heats if total car count is 10 or more. We will run three heats when we exceed 18 cars and will run four heat races when car count reaches 25 or higher. When four heat races are ran, we will have a 20 car feature event.
G) The inversion will be a 1, 2, 3 or 4; first, second, third and fourth place finishers. The winner of the first heat will draw the inversion.
Qualifying Show
A) Draw for qualifying position, lowest number will be first out. The first qualifier will receive one free lap, before going green for two laps back to back.
1 If a car misses his or her drawn qualifying position by more than two cars; or if they elect to run one lap at the end; or if both laps are illegal due to exceeding the sound requirements of the racetrack; the best starting position they will receive for the heats will be behind the heat race inversions, and 11th in the “A” main event.
2 With the standard Six-car inversion for the heats, this means the best you can start a heat under this penalty would be fourth row inside of seventh starting position.
3 If you do not transfer from your heat directly to the “A” main you will be lined up for the “B” main by your legal qualifying time. However, the 11th place starting position penalty for the “A” main used currently will still be in effect should you transfer to the “A” main.
B) The top “6” in each heat race will be inverted by their qualifying times, with heat one’s sixth place car being the fastest qualifier. The following examples are the line-ups for a four-heat program. The numbers illustrated below refer to the qualifying positions of each car.
C) Top “4” finishers in each heat race will go directly to the feature where they will be lined up by their qualifying times. Faster qualifier that made the “A” from their heat will draw for the inversion. The nightly inversion will offer a 0, 4, 6 of an 8. These numbers indicate qualifying spots (example 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 7, 8, if”6” is drawn). In Civil War events the 10th fastest qualifier from heat races (without penalty) will draw the inversion and the options will be a 0, 4, 6, 8 or 10. (Civil War “A” main will be 22 cars.)
D) The “B” main will consist of the next 16 fast cars that did not make the “A” main. They will be lined up by their qualifying times with no inversion. Any car that does not start their heat race will tag the rear of the “B” main.
E) The remaining cars, lined up by times, will make up the “C” main and any DNQ’s that do not finish in the top four in heat race competition will tag the “C” main.
F) We will transfer “2” cars from the “C” to the back of the “B” and take “4” cars from the ”B” with positions one and two getting their times back behind the inversion and 3-4 tagging the rear of the qualifying time behind the inversion, & 5-6 will tag rear. If a zero inversion were drawn the “B” transfers best possible starting position would be inside second row of the feature.
RACE TRACK RULES:
Original Start
A) Double file start in turns four at the cone. In the event of a false start, the race will be called back by going yellow. The original front row will be given two chances at a good start. If they fail to achieve an acceptable start, we will switch the first and the second rows. If we fail to get a good start after the third attempt, we will start in single file in turn four.
B) A car will be given credit for green flag start. If that car was on the race track at that point of time when the caution lights have been turned off by the starter and the pole-car starts the race in turn four. (Between turn three and the cone of chalk line in four.)
C) In the event of going red on the original green flag lap. We will revert to the original crossed-up lineup, with those cars involved going to the back and sliding forward; if more than two positions are gained by sliding forward, we will re-cross the line-up instead.
D) A Competitor will be allowed a maximum of two attempts to push off to start any race and still retain their starting position.
E) One the field of cars is on the track and lined up, any car that is missing will be a one-lap grace period to make the race in their original starting position, after that they will tag the rear or miss the race. If they don’t take the original green, they will
F) You must be in the lane (in line to push depending on track) ready to be pushed; if the pace vehicle has taken 5 laps and you are in the lane you will loose two spots from your posted starting position. Furthermore if the field is in order on the track and we make two laps you will tag the field if you have not pushed off.
QUALIFYING
A) Competitors will be allowed to draw a qualifying number until wheel pack begins; at that time any car that has not drawn a number will be place at the end of the order. If you arrive late for the draw you will be placed at the front or rear of the qualify order or be penalized one lap, whichever would keep from giving the late car an unwarranted competitive advantage.
B) Qualifying will be two laps, back to back with the first car receiving a courtesy lap.
C) Once any car trips the timing light twice, he will be done whether he completes the laps or not.
THE ONLY EXCEPTION TO THIS RULE WILL BE IN THE VENT OF A MALFUNCTION WITH
THE TIMING EQUIPMENT OR IF A CAR WAS INTERFERING WITH ANOTHER CAR’S
QUALIFYING RUN.
D) Any car that misses a lap, and is being given another legal attempt, will be sent back out as close as possible to their original spot, not at the end.
E) Any car that , in the opinion of the track officials, pushes off for qualifying and fails to fire until he passes the flag
Stand in an attempt to receive an extra momentum lap, will receive a checkered flag after his first lap on the clock.
F) Any car that has a mechanical problem, either before or during his qualifying run, will have two car positions to have it fixed without being penalized if he has not started Both Laps.
G) Any car that cannot make their qualifying run will be placed in the back of a heat or the back of a consolation race as DNQ. If you miss your qualifying position by more than 2 cars you will be given one lap at the end regardless of time you will be positioned no better than 11th in the “A” main and will start the heat up behind the inversion. (No penalty in the semi-main, you will receive time recorded.)
H) Any car that misses their spot by more than two cars or exceeds the maximum sound level allowed will be penalized in the “A” main. The best they can start is one position passed the maximum enversion. This penalty will also eliminate qualifying points for that car owner and driver.
I) If during a multi day show you are unable to qualify (Gold Cup, Fall Nationals etc.) for mechanical reasons, you may at promoters discretion be allowed to qualify the next evening, but you will qualify in the same spot, no redraw (if you drew #5 the first night you will be given that number for the second night).
J) It is your responsibility to be at the race tack on time and have representative at the drivers meeting. Anything covered at the drivers meeting applies to all competitors.
FLAGS: YELLOW (CAUTIN, MAINTAIN POSITION):
A) No pit crews are allowed on the race track during a yellow flag.
B) If you stop on a yellow you will go the back of the lineup.
C) Any car that receives two charged yellows in any one race will be black flagged for the remainder of that race, but will receive starting points if earned and/or any position gained at the finish of that race. Being charged with red and yellow will have the same effect as 2 yellows.
D) A charged yellow will be when a car brings out the yellow flag by their own actions and not as the result of trying to stop to avoid another incident on the track. A car that stops to avoid a problem will not go to the back and will not be charged for purposes of the black flag.
E) If a car brings out a yellow but continues (i.e. car does 360, but keeps going) that car will be sent to the back for bringing out the flag. This will not be considered a charged yellow flag for purposes of the two-yellow rule.
F) Courtesy laps, two laps plus one lap to push car: These will be given on yellow flags for any problem when in the designated car ea, however, at 10:30 p.m. courtesy laps will be suspended due to curfew restraints and if you have a problem and cannot continue your car will be moved to the field or nearest point clear of the racing surface to allow completion of the race. If cars goes onto their own pit area, we wont wait any laps. Any tire change will result in loss of position.
G) If there are 3 or more cars involved in the yellow (same incident), the cars will g to the rear but will not be black flagged (if that would have been their second yellow).
H) If any car on the track is considered a danger to themselves or other cars due to driving ability or style, we can and will black flag that car regardless of the number of occurrences.

We may (at the official’s discretion) open a red flag for fuel only, etc., but any work on the car would still result in being disqualified.
5) The work area during open red flags will be done on back stretch or designated work area. All work is permitted on a red, with the exception of a tire change. If you change a tire on a red you will go to the rear. To hold your position on a restart, car must stay on the track. If you go to the pit area, you will lose your position. Closed reds will be in effect at the director of competition or promoter’s discretion if time is an issue.
