Understood.

I don't see the advantage of being #1 qualifier knowing in advance it will be a full field equating to ZERO bye rounds. Is there any bonus money involved?

While there doesn’t seem to be as many tear downs as in the past some will happen. I think if you don’t go to Indy with the gaskets and tools you need to do a tear down you could be in for a surprise. I would suggest being prepared! Mike McMahan 2543 G/SA

This is just qualifying. I predict the fastest car in qualifying doesn't win.

We will see..........

Daryl, my suggestion of Advantages has nothing to do with class eliminations. It has everything to do with the real race, the Eliminator. Jerry has the most most potential heads up that he can win during the REAL race.
