If the F/X cars are going to be in the eliminator the "Q" and "E" should be used for AHFS. If the F/X cars only run there race and not the eliminator no AHFS. No free lunches.
When was the last time that anyone qualified in the top four at a race where F/X cars ran, I can't think of anyone. The top four on the sheet will get all the byes if they can get there. As it is now the rest of the cars are locked out of all the bye rounds, does not seem fair and equitable to the rest of us.

Why do people keep putting all the new cars into the same group?
Based off last year there were 30 Shootout cars.

7 that didn't make the cut for the eliminator. So 23 cars didn't have to live by the AHFS.
Based off that... It's 105 of the fastest old cars not 68.
There are a good number of cars on this years list that are not FS/X, XX cars.
FS/X and FS/XX cars will be the ones eating up spots and not have to play by the rules.
ALL OTHER FS cars have to live and play by the normal AHFS rules...
