Number 10 guy would run 74 for 1st Rd. Does that mean qualifier 129 runs 74 ??
And so on for the others ???

Is their a cut-off time for guys that broke and can't get their car fixed for Saturday's
First Rd. ??? Or do all the alternates have to wait until they call cars to the lanes
on Saturday morning ????

Thank you
Yes, so far. Alternates wait in the back of the lanes. If a Q car has already told the lane guys about it, he may take #129 first and scoot that pair up and out of his way.
Otherwise, he'll wait till last minute and do his best to take the alternates in order.
If a complete Q pair is missing, then he'll take let's say, # 134 and pair him or her with # 135, so you could have alternates racing each other, in rare circumstances.
