Yes.

Almost. It's really 3 heats, with each heat consisting of 2 sets of "run, switch
sides, run", so 2 runs per side per heat (4 runs total) times 3 heats give
twelve runs.
Heat 3 runs on Day two.

More or less. "Bracket race" is theoretically true, but in reality I drive just
as hard in the Challenge as I do in class competition, where in drag racing
bracket racing I _always_ carry a little sand...

To the best of my (limited) knowledge, this will be a normal ProSolo that
doesn't count for points - so it's a freebie. I suspect that it may be
co-located with an Import Drag event, but that's my own guess.

In theory, you need to run _two_, but last year a couple of one-timers got in.
