Jack, I have an answer for that also. Next year the rule will be changed to a 64 car field. Then what has this accomplished? Mr. Kish has hit the nail on the head. Only class winners should race at Indy! Can you imagine what the competition would be like? I bet you would find more cars filtering down into the lower classes, even down into the FWD classes. No more qualifying games some of the "pro" sportsman racers are so good at. This BS of qualifying at the bottom of the field and then remarkably picking up .4 or .5 when needed in the eliminator would be gone! Then you could call it RACING again! Jim
