He ran slower than the index. Is it because he qualified below the index? I am new to class racing, thank you for explaining it to me.Larry

You do not have to run under the Index on the Class run, just at some point during the event. If you're under on the first pass of the weekend, then take the Tree during Class and break, you still win.

Any of your qualifying runs count. As long as you have run below the index at that race you are good for the Wally. It doesn't have to be on the class eliminations designated run. Jim

Yes any of them count Jim, as long as sometime during qualifying runs, your ET was below the index. No it doesnt have to be in class eliminations. I had an engine problem years ago in ATL, for class runoffs and I didnt realize it until I rolled into the water box.I took the tree and shut it off. I was rewarded with class and contigency
