It's hard for me to believe that's changed. It's a national open - there is no "official" qualifying - they generate qualifying sheets but they are for informational purposes... not used for pairings or a ladder.

I believe that now that there is no more class at national events and this will be our D1 race where class is being run with.Wallys and contigency, that there is more weight to it. It was stated that you can't run class at the Baby Gators if you don't make a qualifying run prior, and they are applying the same rules. The same happened at Indy this year. The only difference was they offered a clean up run at the end of class for a couple racers who hadn't made a qualifying run prior to cla ss. We were also told they are bringing in extra tech people to handle class this year at the Dutch, so we may see teardowns like I was picked at the Keystones last year.
