100 percent right Jim.

My point was if there was bad weather on sat or sun, how could they get everything in.
Then i noticed the bikes only had a handful, so i should look to see how many bikes
they had first before speaking my peace.

Pete,

Because the forecast called for rain Saturday, They had time delays built into the schedule. When it appeared that the rain was not going to happen, they added a second round of Stock eliminations on Saturday afternoon.Had it rained, they would have run round two on Sunday as planned.

Also, by having TAD and TAFC finish eliminations on Saturday, they can be moved to Sunday if it rains.

The bikes really didn't add much time and the Top Fuel bikes are fun to watch.
