Also when I look at a quick 16 sheet that has 3 guys slower than me on it what else am I to think? Is it that common core math up there or what?

The sheet shows all the people who paid to run the Q16. They only take the top 8 of those people. The sheet had 20 signed up I guess. Usually more than that.

They also have an Open body side which they take the top 8 of those entries. George said there were only 2 dragsters. (Open body)

What they do then to make a field of 16 cars is to take the cars that entered and qualified slower than the top 8 of the closed body cars to fill the 16 car field.

Then 1st round they ladder the cars with the Open Body cars against the Closed body cars.
Since there were only 2 dragsters, that made the other 6 open body cars actually closed body but are shown as "Open Body".

George for example probably ran a slow closed body car 1st round even though they were called Open body car.
