Bump Spot for Stock and Super Stock Without AHFS At Indy

That is a shame that NHRA could not even get the correct alternates chosen for the biggest race of the year.
A simple solution is for the drivers who qualified 129 and down to write their qualifying # on windshield with shoe polish and then have NHRA line them up in number order in a designated area. Then as an alternate is needed, they pull the driver out in the correct order.

Or better yet, you need to tell NHRA by 30 min prior to the scheduled start time of the first round if you are making the call. If you aren't going to make it, NHRA can go ahead and start getting alternates ready.

If NHRA does not have race control folks who can manage this, they need to find someone who can.
