Not True... Only the top 128 qualifiers make it to the ladder for first round at a divisional. We routinely had more than 128 at the old Quaker City races in D3 and Englishtown in D1.

It's seems strange but someone will not qualify if there are more than 128.

Breakage will probably get them back in the field anyway.

That's what I understood it to be fastest 128 qualifiers and maybe then alternates if there any for the first round

One year Maple Grove Divisional had well over 128 cars as well as the other tracks you
mentioned Tom.

128 did

I did not make any big effort to go as fast as I could and wound up around 110th........about .65 under

I had no idea that many cars were there and luckily made it in..

I have not been to Bowling Green for several years. But I have been here about 6 or 7 times in the past before Indy. This is the best air I have seen here and from others this is as good as it gets for this time of year. Even though it's good for here for the time of year it's not real fast by any means. The sad part to me as I watch the cars go down a good amount are letting off early not to go 1 sec. under. Several racers including myself and my brother are running heavy with extra oil and timing out to not run more then 1 sec under. I thought this was a performance class. I ran a D/SA Corvette my second pass today. He went 108 miles per hour while I went 106 in B/SA. Maybe it's time to look at moving the average to 1 sec under in a combo to get hp. So all you guys that don't want to work on your combo or spend some money on it to go faster flame away. I'm happy to be sitting here surrounded by a bunch of people that still like to make their cars go fast. BP

MJ you owe me a grand but I will settle for a cold one !!!!
