Allen Autosports Race Cars is the sponsor of the AmeriFlex USRA B-Mod pole dash while Rural Propane is sponsoring the USRA Stock Car pole dash. The procedure for the pole dash is as follows: The top 6 qualifiers in passing points from heat races will compete in a 6-lap pole dash. The winner will get the option to start pole in the A-Main or forfeit the pole and take the $300, but must start 6th in the A-Main if accepting the cash. If the winner opts to start on the pole, the same option will be given to the 2nd place finisher in the pole dash. If both drivers opt to stay on the front row, the $300 will be split evenly among all drivers in the pole dash. If either driver opts to start 6th and wins the A-Main they will win an additional $200.
