Re: Qualifying Question
Yes, but they have to at least dial their index in eliminations.

Re: Qualifying Question
ALL Nat. events have a quota for the Sportsman classes.
Depends on where there racing at: Some tracks have more space then others so the car quota might be higher. Quota's are usually 55-70 cars.

Re: Qualifying Question
Used to be all run with 128 car field. You had to qualify within the 128 positions or go home. Jim

Re: Qualifying Question
Indy is the only event where the quotas exceed the size of the qualified fields. For Indy, the Stock and Super Stock quotas are at 180 for a 128 car qualified field. At the other 23 National events, Stock and Super Stock are only qualifying for position; at Indy, they are qualifying to be in the quickest 128 cars so that they can race in the eliminator.
