These 4 racers got forced out of Stock Eliminator at INDY because 4 FS/XX cars got 2 bites of the apple to qualify and race at INDY..

Sad...

It is better than 2016. Last year, when Factory Stock Eliminator qualified only eight cars, 12 fell back into Stock Eliminator as FS/XX. The 12 that were pushed out then were:

129 3343 N/SA Don Turk, Lebanon IN, '74 Grand Am 12.110 13.00 -0.890
130 3325 J/SA Kyle Riley, Sauk Village Il, '80 Cutlass 11.567 12.45 -0.883
131 3120 H/SA Lyn Smith, Pontiac IL, '73 Gran Sport 11.268 12.15 -0.882
132 3074 K/S Tommy Turner, Tompkinsville KY, '85 Musta 11.675 12.55 -0.875
133 407B F/S Don Davidson, Gilmer TX, '69 Camaro 10.925 11.80 -0.875
134 3355 R/S Timothy Weinzapfel, St. Phillips IN, '66 13.076 13.95 -0.874
135 4121 C/SA Kyle Ratcliff, Denton TX, '98 Firebird 10.531 11.40 -0.869
136 379 FS/C Ryan Kirkpatrick, Selma IN, '14 Camaro 9.434 10.30 -0.866
137 3428 G/SA Tom Rambo, Washington C.H. OH, '68 Camaro 11.139 12.00 -0.861
138 3649 D/SA Bruce Gibson, Dayton IN, '71 Demon 10.702 11.55 -0.848
139 3952 E/SA Marvin Benoit, Alvaton KY, '71 Camaro 10.866 11.70 -0.834
140 3150 E/S Tom Russell, East Sparta OH, '67 Camaro 10.824 11.65 -0.826

Interestingly, the bump spot in 2017 is exactly the same as in 2016: -.893
