In that era.......
Class Winners were the only cars that ran eliminations....
ALL class winners were torn down....No exceptions...
If the Class winner was DQ'ed
the Class R/Up was torn down and if he or she was DQ'ed
No car from that class made it into eliminations....
Was that a better situation....? I don't know but it sure made winning your class a very sought after goal.....
National events were few and far between.....
