Re: What To Do With DNQ FS/XX Cars
I believe if they sign up for the shootout they have accepted the possibllity of not qualifying for the show therefore they should be out. NHRA should look into a 12 or 16 car field in both X and XX.

Re: What To Do With DNQ FS/XX Cars
Send them home just like if they were the 17th and 18th Qualifer in Pro Stock or Funny Car No different! They wanted to be in the Big Time.

Re: What To Do With DNQ FS/XX Cars
I couldn't agree more with the previous posts. If they choose to run the shootout, then they should only be eligible for the shootout if they're running against the shootout index.
I continue to think the new cars are great for the class but we need fair and consistent rules for everyone. Maybe all of the traditional classes should get 2 tenths of index back at Indy to even things out during qualifying. |

Re: What To Do With DNQ FS/XX Cars
Last year at the St Louis LODS, J Hullinger showed me a email that he received stating that the Sportsmen Racing committee had voted not to change anything about how Stock eliminator is run at Indy(as in all run,or FS cars having their own eliminator).So if you would like to see a change at Indy, I suggest you talk to your Division rep.

Re: What To Do With DNQ FS/XX Cars
Why not make it a separate "class" in conjunction with stock and have it all run, not to interfere with normal stock eliminator?
