4-3: 20 points in any 12-month period; or experience in 25 qualifying races with a minimum of 10 top ten finishes, or 20 pack finishes with fields over 50. 30 points in 12 months is an automatic upgrade
To go from 4 to 3 all you need to do is pull out 25 races...much the same as 4 to 5. You can also upgrade via top 10s - which is what I'm attempting to do. Or you can upgrade via points.
