Will the 250s have regular qualifying heats? I can't remember how it works for Vegas now.

Edit: Got my answer.

No heats, just E/W mains and a shootout.

Top 20 from qualifying go straight to the main. No heats/lcq's this week.

I still do not know if I like it that at the last race they completely skip the normal race format when the championships are on the line. As we saw last week making the main from racing is a whole different affair from turning a fast lap to make the main.

Top 10 from each region in final points. If a top 10 guy skips vegas they bump others in to those spots.

Having the titles decided in Vegas has killed the importance of the shootout.

If I remember right last year they did not have 20 east riders show up to Vegas. They filled the field with riders from the group C pool of riders regardless of region.

Watchin live for a bit before I gotta get to some yard work. Track looks pretty cool, I wish they woulda done the big raised sweeper turn, but other than that I think it'll yield some cool racing.

Man, those 250 guys are going really fast coming out of the flat track turn and rocketing back into the stadium. I wonder how fast the 450 guys are going to be going? I wish someone would put a radar gun on them and just see how much speed they're carrying.

I take this back, the riders will all have the same rhythms thru all the lanes. It'll come down to the few whoops and the 180s, I guess.
