Platinum and Gold drivers are eligible to qualify as a fill-in for the full show on Saturday, which would also need a qualifying pass on Friday. Silver, Bronze, and Rookie drivers are eligible to qualify for the Young Gun's Shootout on Friday, which would require the winner to run a qualifying pass on Friday and the full show on Saturday.

Jeremiah Riter and Devastator is now locked into the Main Event this weekend as all people starting from Jack Merkle and going down have been moved up one place in points. If anyone else cannot make this weekends event, be sure to message me as soon as possible.

It depends on how many people show up to qualify for it. I'm going to be expanding the field as we go, so it will start at 8, and once more than 12 qualify it will be a 12 truck bracket, and again at 16. So the number of people who show will directly decide how many compete.

If you want to make the Main Event, you need to first qualify into the Young Gun's Shootout and then win it.

As of now the poll is closed and is a close one, 21 saying no event, and 23 saying yes. Nearly all the people who voted are running in the league which helps to show what type of a turnout there would be and after some thought and consideration, we will not be running Detroit this weekend. While there were more people for running, there were nearly as much saying no, which really isn't enough of a margin to justify running. This is merely based on what would seem to be the best for the rest of the season, so I apologize if it seems any other way. Event thread for Oakland and Syracuse will be posted shortly, along with a download link for Oakland later on.

Just for clarification, due to outside conflicts, Oakland will be ran on Friday regardless of the results of this poll. Also, in order to try to make a more decisive decision, I will be removing the two least voted for options, Detroit 2011 and Detroit 2012. If you voted for either, you should recast your vote so your decision will count.

Due to the lack of time available and not having enough people able to help, it has become obvious that getting a track done for Detroit will not be able to happen. Because of this we are faced with two options, run an old Detroit or not run a Detroit at all. Simply put, we need responses as soon as possible to make our decision. Voting will occur until Thursday at midnight eastern. Event threads for Oakland and Syracuse will be up before this time, with the date for Syracuse to stay on Sunday regardless. Oakland will be moved to Saturday will remain on Friday if we do not run any Detroit show.

Update for 7/21/15: Announcing the Regular Season Finale at Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas, NV: As the Regular Season is approaching its final weekend, and a big one in that, we are now nearly a week away from the Regular Season Finale. What is the Regular Season Finale? It's basically the equivalent to any other leagues World Finals event, but serves as the final event before the Play-Off Series, one last chance to get locked into the Top 16 and have a chance to win the Season Championships. Over the course of the first 6 events, the playing field has developed into what it is now, leaving the cream of the crop leading in Overall Points as we approach Las Vegas. Now, some may be wondering how the Regular Season Finale will work and here is an explanation: How to get into the event: Simplest way is to be one of the Top 23 Drivers in Overall Points after Event 8: Syracuse, NY, as of the time this is being posted the current Top 23 are as follows: Now as some may already know, there will be a 24th spot for the event, which will be coming from the first SSRS Young Gun's Shootout. No, not a new concept, exactly the opposite really. Just as its been done the past few years at the Monster Jam World Finals, we will be having a smaller racing bracket of drivers held the night before the event to award the final spot for the Finale. How do you qualify for the Young Gun's Shootout? Here is how it will work: Qualifications to be in the Young Gun's Shootout: Any Silver, Bronze, or Rookie ranked driver outside the Top 23 in Overall Points that is signed-up for the league before Event 8: Syracuse, NY As the time of this post will include: Any person with 12 or more Qualifier Points who chooses to lock themselves into the bracket Young Gun's Shootout Event Explanation: Field size is yet to be determined but can be either 8, 12, or 16 depending on the number of people qualifying for the bracket. Qualifying will be held Thursday, July 30th from 7:30 est/6:30 to 12:00 est/11:00 est Young Gun's Shootout will be held Friday, July 31st with Team Speak Chat starting at 7:00 est/6:00 cst with racing starting once all competitors are present Fill-ins may been need, so stick around before the YGS as you could possibly miss out on making the Regular Season Finale Racing bracket will run as any other would and the winner will be crowned the Young Gun's Shootout Champion and will be given the 24th spot in the Regular Season Finale Friday Night Qualifying Explanation: As for the other 23 drivers and the YGS Winner there is still the event to qualify for. Following the standard Monster Jam World Finals event, excluding the 32 truck events, we will be having qualifying on Friday Night. Team Speak Chat will open once the Young Gun's Shootout concludes to conserver server slots Qualifying will be held Friday, July 31st from after the Young Gun's Shootout until everyone has qualified Bracket will be set the same night and will include all 24 trucks (no obstacle course competition and no freestyle only competitors) Anyone who needs to qualify and won't be around must contact me either by Private Message or AIM (danny.mackey) They should expect to qualify Thursday night, otherwise will have to try to qualify Saturday, which is fairly unlikely due to scheduling Saturday Night Event Explanation: Team Speak Chat will open at 6:45 est/5:45 cst and the event will begin once all drivers are present All 24 drivers will be competing in the racing bracket and all 24 drivers will be freestyling Following the conclusion of freestyle, the Top 16 drivers being locked into the Play-Off Series will be announced and the Regular Season Finale winners will be congratulated. Obviously many of you may not have needed such a long explanation of the event, but at least now everyone can be as aware of what is going on. Any questions, comments, or concerns can be messaged to me here or on AIM (danny.mackey).
