Is this from some prior announcement or the Supplemental Regulations?  If it's from the Supps I need some help finding it.

 

 

 

Sorry, I guess I missed that memo.  So what you are saying is that there is no longer the possibility of Event Oversubscription.

 

Event Oversubscription

  • There will be a finite amount of space on the grounds of the Speedway for paddock. We should be able to accommodate approximately 700-750 cars, but are still in the process of designing the paddock maps. We will need to limit the event entries to what the paddock can handle.
  • Should we need to limit entries due to paddock space, we will do so with the following process:
    • 1.Each class will be seeded individually per the above "Class Seeding" process.
    • 2.The percentage of total pre-event, qualified entries that a class constitutes of the total entry will dictate how many invitations will be extended for each class. For example, if there are 800 total pre-event entries, of which 80 (10 percent) are Spec Miata, and we need to limit to 750 total entries, SM would receive 75 invitations (10 percent of the total).
    • 3.Invitations will be sent after the early-entry deadline date (to be published with the supplemental regulations in the spring).
    • 4.Drivers not receiving invitations will be placed on two separate wait lists, a per-class wait list and an overall wait list.
      • Per-class wait list is seeded as above (Class Seeding) and only for drivers entered before the pre-entry deadline. Spaces opening up in a class due to withdrawals will be filled in with class wait-listed drivers.
      • The overall wait list will be based on the below order. If an invited driver withdraws from a class and no one is on that class' wait list, the next driver in the overall wait-list will be invited to the event, regardless of class, space permitting.
        • 1.Defending Class National Champions
        • 2.Hoosier Super Tour total points earned per class (not limited to best six races). Must score at least 1 (one) point. Tiebreakers as follows:
          • Most 1st, 2nd, 3rd and so on place finishes in Hoosier Super Tour races within that class. If ties cannot be broken by finishes, they will be broken by entry date.
        • 3.SCCA U.S. Majors Tour total points earned per class (all events, regardless of Conference, no point minimum). Tiebreakers as follows:
          • Most 1st, 2nd, 3rd place finishes and so on in U.S. Majors Tour races within that class. If ties cannot be broken by finishes, they will be broken by entry date.
        • 4.Remaining drivers by entry date.
      • Drivers entering after the pre-entry deadline will be added only to the end of the overall wait list by entry date.

MEMORANDUM

TO: SCCA Club Racing Drivers
FR: SCCA Club Racing
RE: Runoffs Oversubscription, Invitations and Schedule
DT: January 13, 2017

With the anticipation of high entry counts for the 2017 SCCA National Championship Runoffs at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, SCCA is evaluating how to address potential oversubscription for the event, as well as class qualifying and race groupings.

Before determining how to address groupings, we first have to decide on the pre-race event format. While we have yet to finalize everything, this is what we anticipate:
