Bryan Hulbert – TULSA, Okla. (November 15, 2021) Already releasing an increased point fund, Terry Mattox has Revealed the latest change for the 2022 season with the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network in 2022. An updated nightly format.
Borrowing aspects from several formats to make one, the format will feature group qualifying, which then ties back into the traditional ASCS Passing Points scale to set the night’s lineups.
The new format breaks down like this.
“We wanted to come up with something that doesn’t overly reward any one aspect of the night,” stated series owner, Terry Mattox.
“Every format has its perks and drawbacks, so when we started looking at how we wanted to proceed, we cherrypicked the aspects of several formats and combined them to where Qualifying gives control back to the driver, shakes things up, and helps you going forward, but you still have to race hard through your Heat Race. You can’t just ride in a transfer spot.”
Regional Tours will use the traditional passing point format.
More details on changes for the 2022 season will be released as they are finalized. The full 2022 lineup of events will be released during the final week of November/first week of December.
The 2022 season will mark the 31st year of competition for the American Sprint Car Series. Spearheaded by the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network, the ASCS Nation includes 11 Regional Tours encompassing both wing and non-wing competition.
