Williams Grove Unveils New Yellow Breeches Format For 410s This Week

358 sprints attempt to get season underway on Douty's Pest Control Night

Mechanicburg - The Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars will compete in a Yellow Breeches 500 race at Williams Grove Speedway coming up this Friday, May 20 at 7:30 pm on Douty's Pest Control Night.

Still trying to get their 2022 season underway, the HJ Towing & Recovery 358 sprint cars will also be on the racing program.

For the 410 sprints, the Yellow Breeches 500 race will pay $500 to start the 25-lap main event while offering $5,000 to the winner.

After losing a previous Yellow Breeches race to weather, Friday’s race for the 410 sprint cars will be the first of the year to offer a new twist on qualifying.

All Yellow Breeches 500 races during the season will see timed practice laps used to set the heat starting lineups.

Hot lap/qualifying groups for the shows will be established and seeded equally based on each entered drivers season earning’s average to date.

And all cars in a group will face off against the same opponents in their respective heat races.

An invert of the driver’s times after hot laps will be used to set the heat starting grids.

And then the top two or three heat finishers, based on the total number of heats contested, will be placed into the front starting spots of the night’s main event again handicapped onto the grid based on each driver’s financial earning’s average to date.

The 358 sprints will compete in a 20-lap main after qualifying heat races.
