The CRA Super Series Event is 250 laps counting yellow flag laps with a 15-minute break somewhere near lap 150 where work may be done on the cars without any penalty. After 15 minutes the field will be lined up the way they were running when the red flag for the break was displayed.

3) Positions 25 and 26 will be the top two CRA Super Series teams in the owners points that have not yet qualified for the feature event.

4) Position number 27 will come from the 25 lap last chance race on Sunday
