SARA's biggest short track event, the 5th Annual H&H Sign Supply Fall Brawl Spectacular, is set to take place November 18-21 as some of iRacing's best short trackers will look to add their name to the list of Fall Brawl Champions. This year the Super Late Models will once again highlight the week as the featured division, and will be joined this year by the K&N cars for an action packed week of racing.

H&H Sign Supply Fall Brawl 250
Headlining the week will be the Super Late Model 250-lap main event at the Five Flags Speedway that will put drivers to the test. It's not all about speed as strategy will be equally important in deciding who ends up in victory lane. The 250-lap main event will be on Thursday, November 21.
Super Late Model Qualifying Nights
There will be 2 Qualifying Nights for the Super Late Models, as the field of entries will be trimmed down to just 30 cars that will take the green flag in the Fall Brawl. Qualifying Night 1 on Tuesday, November 19 will be Pole Night, as all drivers will put down their best laps in Time Trials to try and lock themselves into the show, then the top drivers from Time Trials will run the Pole Dash to determine who will lead the field to green on race night. Qualifying Night 2 on Wednesday, November 20 will be the "Prelude to the Brawl", as all remaining cars that have yet to qualify will battle it out in a pair of Qualifying Races, plus a Last Chance Qualifier in attempt to transfer their way in. The final couple of spots will be awarded as provisionals to round out the 30-car field.
K&N 175
This year’s support division will feature the K&N cars as they will kick things off at Five Flags on Monday, November 18th. The night will include both Time Trials and the 175-lap feature race.
*ALL times are Eastern, and are subject to change.
All sessions will start as a Late Afternoon Session (with the exception of the LCQ on SLM Qual Night #2 which will be a Night session).
All sessions will use Dynamic Weather.

K&N Series Qualifying Format
Qualifying for Monday night's K&N Series race will use a standard Time Trials format.
All drivers will be given 2 laps (simultaneously) to put down their fastest qualifying lap in Time Trials. The top 28 cars will lock themselves into the feature event. If more than 30 cars enter, the final two spots on the grid may be used as promoter's provisionals to be used at their discretion. A total of 30 cars will start the race.
Super Late Model Qualifying Format
Qualifying Night 1 - Pole Night - Time Trials + Pole Dash
The pressure will be on for drivers during Time Trials on Pole Night. Only 10 cars will lock themselves in on speed, while others will need to run the second Qualifying Night to make the show. A solid lap will put drivers in a good position, while a single mistake can hurt a driver's chance at transferring.
Time Trials
Drivers will be sent out on track one at a time and will be given two laps to lay down their best lap times. Only the top 10 cars from Time Trials will lock themselves into the Fall Brawl feature, while the rest of the field will need to run the second Qualifying Night.
Pole Dash
The top 10 cars from Time Trials will lock themselves into the Fall Brawl, but they will still need to run the Pole Dash to determine their starting position for the race. The Dash lineup will be inverted from Time Trials, forcing drivers to race for position to help their chances at a better starting position on the grid.
Pole Award pres. by Ryan Blanchard Designs
The combined results from the top 10 in Time Trials, plus the finishing order of the Pole Dash, will determine who earns the Pole Award as well as the starting order for the Fall Brawl. In Time Trials, the top 10 cars will earn points 1-10 respectively, then in the Pole Dash the drivers will also earn points 1-10 based on their finishing position. The driver with the lowest combined points between Time Trials and the Pole Dash will earn the Pole Award, and the rest of the top 10 will line up in order of the lowest points totals.
(For example, Driver A records the fastest lap in Time Trials, and then finishes 5th in the Dash, so they will earn 6 points. Driver B is 8th in Time Trials and the finishes 1st the Dash, so they will earn 9 points. Driver A will start ahead of Driver B.)
Qualifying Night 2 - Prelude to the Brawl - Qualifying Race(s) + Last Chance Qualifier
Drivers that Time Trial 11th on back from Qual Night 1 will need to run on Qual Night 2 in the Qualifying Races.
Qualifying Race(s)
Drivers that qualify 11th on back will run in the Qualifying Races which will be 100 laps, and a total of 16 cars will transfer their way into the Fall Brawl.
Based on the current number of entries, the field will be split up into two separate Qualifying Races, each 100 laps. They will run simultaneously, and the top 8 cars from each (16 total) will transfer into the Fall Brawl.
Last Chance Qualifier
All drivers that fail to qualify in thru the Qualifying Races, will be forced to go into a Last Chance Qualifier, where only the top 2 finishers will advance into the Fall Brawl after the 75-lap LCQ.
Provisionals
The final two spots on the grid, to make it a 30-car field, will be awarded as provisionals. The first provisional will be awarded to the fastest car in Time Trials that has yet to advance into the race, based on their lap time in Time Trials. The second and final provisional will be 100% admin's discretion with no prior requirements needed to earn a provisional.
RULEBOOK
Standard SARA rules and procedures will apply to this event. Drivers can read our full rulebook HERE. All races will be reviewed and penalties may be given out based on the rulebook.
TIRE RULE
ONE SET of additional tires will be allowed for each race. This means that in addition to the set of tires you start the race on, you will only be allowed to take one set of tires during the course of the race. A set is defined as two left side tires and two right side tires, and drivers will not be allowed to jack up either side of the car more than once. If a driver accidentally takes extra tires during the race and notifies admins, they will receive a 1 minute penalty to be served under green flag conditions, otherwise the penalty will be a last place finish in the results.
No extra tires will be allowed in any qualifying sessions, qualifying races, or last chance qualifiers.
