day!!! "Door
slammer-type" vehicles only are permitted. Any and all performance
modifications are legal, no
tire size limits (Slicks OK), no minimum weight requirements, and all power adders are
accepted.

Permitting), #1 Qualifier will be determined by the closest run to the
11.60/10.60 index without going quicker. In the event of 2 or more cars
running the same qualified ET, the driver who posts the time first will
be awarded with the qualified spot. If you run quicker than the 11.60/10.60
Index on all 3 runs, you will be placed at the bottom of the ladder for eliminations.
Since this is a "All Run Field" if a racer misses all qualifying
sessions, they still can be placed on the bottom of the ladder if the
driver notifies PSCA Officials prior to the Sunday Morning Mandatory

choice.. In the 2nd round and beyond, the driver that is closest to the
11.60/10.60 Index without going quicker will be awarded lane choice. If both
