AWRA races are considered to be one big race and are not separated into mains. Points are awarded for the overall finish rather than for finish position within a heat. For instance, if a racer qualifies 24th in a field of 24 cars, he is not locked out of the top eight racers. He will place according to his total accumulation of laps.

Bonus points will be awarded in points series only. These bonus points are awarded in a tiered manner for qualifying and they are awarded to every racer who starts a race as follows:

Event one of the series - 1 bouus point for each race started. Since an event is typically three rsaces, Each racer will get up to three bonus points, one point for each race started.

Event two of the series - 2 bonus points for easc starred.

Event three of the series - 3 bonus points will be awarded for each race

Event four of the series - 4 bonus points will be awarded for each race.

In a four-race series, Each racer will receive 30 bonus points for starting every race in the series. The purpose of the bonus points is to reward racers who race in every race in a series and therefore encourage attendance .The bonus points are awarded on a “tiered” system to cut down on the number of dropouts, which are a problem in any series and to reward every racer who is willing to make the effort to race in every event.

Bonus, or qualifying points will only be awarded in points series, and only points series where two or more racewas are involved, such as the North/South Series.

Racers may appeal points standings.

The AWRA will rule on all appeals and the decision of the AWRA Rules Committee is final.
