Those cars made up four of the top five at the end of the night more often than not.
Former IOWer IMZIE who's been gone a few years now, Told me that if any of them ran a second faster than their qualifying time at any time in the night, They were DQ'd. Also said that was done with stop watches, but it is what it is.

The world has changed since you grew up Chuck. This sport has to change to attract a new generation of fans. If it doesn't it will die. Pretty simple.
