128 Car Field Qualifying

Mike Pearson · 07-22-2008, 12:46 PM

There realy aren't that many heads up runs in eliminator anyway. Most of us slow guys try to position ourselves during qualifing to avoid the faster guys in the class. If you are the fast guy in the class then you will try to get a class run because you have an advantage. If you are slower by more than a couple of hundreths then its just a time run. It is fun to watch the heads up runs but they are usually over just past the starting line. Then the fast guy just eases off the throttle to save his combo from a HP hit. Thats not real interesting to the uninformed spectators.
