Mineshaft is only about final order. S/S could be mineshaft at a race and Stock not be mineshaft at the same race. Weather has nothing to do with it. As we found out at Indy 3500' can be mineshaft if the right mix of cars are entered.


Indy was 150 cars trying to fill 98 spots, that's why Indy is always show and tell. "Ain't nothing like it" he said with a smile. The math looks wrong until the F/X cars are inserted, after the F/X cars are inserted in the field, all of us in the eliminator need a big kiss.


F/X cars and mineshaft.
70 cars in qualified field, 20 F/X cars in field of 70. The F/X cars are subtracted from the field 70 leaving 50 cars. If the number 26 car of the field of 50 is .85 under or quicker = mineshaft.


FS_ cars and F/X cars are not the same. AHFS does not apply to F/X cars. That's why we need a kiss.
