Default How important is qualifying in Stock and Super Stock

I have run an analysis on Stock and Super Stock for 2019 and the results are amazing.


What think you? Out of all the finals how many qualified 1-10.

I’d imagine less than 7% with less than 5% for the last 10 qualifiers. Seems like more people are trying to get a little higher on the sheet.

in a 100 car race there it a random 10% chance for one to be in the finals.but two spots in the finals so it higher.say it a 50 car race now it a 20% chance for one car in the top 10 to make it.

The argument could be made that the attitude and dedication of the individuals have a lot to do with overall performance, including having a fast car (qualifying) and driving well (final rounds). I doubt if the qualifying position alone would have much to do with driving well enough to make it to the finals.
