So, as an alternate you could possibly be inserted into a heads-up situation. If you know that one of the no-shows could mean a heads-up race for you, you might want to make yourself "unavailable" while they're looking to fill that spot -- provided there are other spots available.

I know I know, everybody loves to race heads-up, but if you're an alternate I doubt you would want to race a qualified car heads-up especially when you're not hopped up.

Good point Toby, But if it were me and I traveled a thousand miles and ended up
in a heads up alternate in the first round we all know stranger things could happen at the starting line also lol, I would still take my chances any day then be put on the trailer because of the wacked out HP on these new Hot Rods its BS.
