The completion of the first lap will be when half the cars cross the start/finish line. On start of race if either inside or outside poll cars spin on their own and causes a caution flag to be thrown then that car rolls back to the rear of pack. Any car on start of race or during race that causes a caution will go to the rear of field. If the track officials cannot make a definite decision on which car was at fault in a 2 or more wreck then all cars go back to where they were scored on previous lap and will be penalized one caution. Any car with 2 cautions will be sent to the pits.
