In reality, these ideas of having "more chances" are better for the bigger teams than the smaller teams. If you give somebody like Tracy Hines, who can overcome this tough format, another chance to get in or improve his starting position, he's going to beat the little guys every time! And if guys are forced to make it through the heat after qualifying well in order to start better than 17th, you're gonna see some big teams tearing up the little guys' equipment in desperation. It is so much easier for a little guy to put together a qualifying run (because I've seen more little guys qualify well than race well) than have to beat these super teams over and over again.

And if we keep adding races, we're really gonna upset those people who are mad at Kokomo for ending late!
