A track not having 5 drivers but at least 3 in attendance, the top 2 drivers qualifying will be used twice for points compilation.

A traveling trophy will go home with the winning team to be defended at the USVTA Southern Nationals as well as lunch for the team on Sunday.

Is this for VTA only? How will it work with many running multiple classes. HobbyPlex Omaha has at least enough to compete. Final count = 9 heading east for the race!

The traveling trophy/lunch will only be for VTA, someone could feel sorry for a track that is short on driver's and switch sides :-(, sorry should have clarified in my late nite post.
