The NHRA lists first round winners and next round pairs (if you go back and look you will see that it says that in the heading). So the 36 cars that are listed have already won first round and the car that they are paired with is their round 2 opponent. If you notice, 36 is one half of 71 (35 pairs and 1 bye in round 1).
