#2) The higher qualified car should have lane choice. I could go with that for the whole race, or just first round and then go on best package or best RT from the previous round.

Bill,

When IHRA had the qualifying list determined lane choice you could run 8 flat in I/SA and a guy who ran 14.50 in A/S the round prior still had lane choice if he qualified better. There was no incentive to run cars out (kinda like the current 1000' qual.) but maybe a better way would be you have to run the index or you don't even get a coin flip?

Only a random computer generated first round ladder would end the games. And if cars are not running past 1000' why waste time, adding a day to the event, and discourage the few spectators sitting in the stands? My guests have many times asked why not one time run and begin eliminatioons?
