I know of at least 1 Pinto Wagon that will be racing in the eliminator, and has a pretty good chance to still be racing on Monday (since the eliminator starts on Saturday and gets weeded down to 8 cars before Monday). And for the record, I seem to remember an Escort and Topaz battle a few years ago that resulted in a pair of top 15 qualifying spots and, if not mistaken, a 4th or 5th round exit in the eliminator for the Escort in the final round on Sunday night (almost making the Monday show).

Don't count out some of the older combinations just yet...just because we are slow does not mean we do not know how to drive or how to make our cars quick against the index...
