Okay. I’ve voiced my displeasure with the USAC format before but thought I atleast understood it finally until tonight. Per their rule book “ In the event of over 36 cars in competition with a standard format, a split-qualifying format would be in effect. Cars in group one qualify into the first two heats, with cars in group two filling into the last two heats. From there, a standard format is followed with the overall qualifying seeds being meshed, with the group including fast time taking all odd positions.” Tonight quick time was in flight 2. Nienhauser, Thomas jr, and Thorson didn’t make it out of their heat so how is it that Cummins starts 12 and not front row?
