Had they not run B last year(since everybody qualified) there would have been enough time to run the A. The notion that the teams will do this is aggravating and will do nothing to help their image and product.
These guys are racers and it's not NASCAR where you can make 50k by starting and parking. Even if it's only 3k to win these guys will race for $50 as long as they are racing.

Ron I doubt if there is a team upset about that. This year is the most races they have on the schedule since the mid 70's
