28 cars qualified at this point in time. It is raining right now and the radar certainly doesn't look very promising for qualifing in the near future. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

I don't ever remember the field not being filled the first day of qualifing. Normally it is filled with the top 15 locked in and the second day being the bump day. It has probably happened before that I just don't remember it.

On Thursday, 34 cars were on the grounds. Hopefully, a few more cars will show. About 8-10 cars don't need to be in the 500 as they will get run over at the start.
