Then some will lobby to give the higher qualified position to the one with the most mph.

Well, some really good cars didn't qualify the last couple of years given the FSS cars and their index, and this year looks to be even more of a challenge for 'traditional' stockers. Think Nitro Joe is pretty close with his prediction. If you've got a stocker that can't go .90 under in D3 summer air then I think you're just going for the experience rather than reasonably looking to be able to run the eliminator. Not trying to rain on anybody's parade...Topeka and/or Bowling Green heat will probably lead a few to cancel their entries to spend at a future National event.

Looks like -.88 Stock

Barry Parker, Bob Michael nailed it.

Gary P, Nitro , and yours truly were close.
