I am not a Crate Late Model expert...Frankly I dont like them...BUT since some of those guys raced Supers in the past I might be of help.

I would say the reason Barnett wasnt invited was because the races he ran were not Stormpay.com Sanctioned.

Brad Barrow has been driving the K1NG car which is owned by Ray Godsey, Godsey was supposed to drive the car but decided instead to put Brad in the seat. Brad won a few races earlier in the season, and has ran consistent. Brad is a former Brownstown Speedway Super Late Model track champion. And did it by not even winning a race that season.

Mark Barber is also a former multi time Brownstown Speedway Super Late Model, UMP Modified, and Super Stock track champion. Decided to run Supers on a limited basis this year, and focus on the crates.
