Yeah I posted both descriptions. I'm a bit confused also.
Heats will see the winner and fastest transfer go to the Dash, the twist comes if the fastest qualifier wins the Heat Race from fourth - they'll be guaranteed the best available Dash starting spot and the next position car will go to the Dash. For example, if the fastest qualifier wins Heat 1 from fourth, he or she will automatically be on the pole of the Dash with the number-one pill removed from the draw for others.
