Indy Entries in Stock and Super Stock

There will be some withdrawals after Bowling Green, only unknown is how many ex-champs and top tens enter like Larry said which may take the number of entries close to 170. Grim reality will set in if they can’t run 80 under in Super Stock and 90 under in Stock and conditions at BG usually make that obvious to some (me included).

[QUOTE=Whalen3186;593710]I would argue that changing the quota from 160 to 180 does impact some racers. If you're the guy that qualifies #130 with a 180 car quota, there's a good chance that you would have made the show with 160 entries. There's probably a few racers that entered Indy with the expectation of a 160 car quota and the belief that they could qualify.

EXACTLY! We have all known it was 160 since the season started... you wanna run The Go... then load your stuff up 4-5 times the other 51 weeks out of the year and Go to the track.
