Top 35 question?

haggismoffat is correct, here's how they explain it at jayski:

the highest-ranked 35 positions of the NNCS OWNER [not Driver] championship points that have entered the event prior to the entry deadline

So it IS based on the top 35 in owner's points that ENTERED the race by the required deadline.

And listed right here are Mine a million Led Zeppelin 2 Black Sabbath 3 pink Floyd 4 The Rolling Stones 5 The Who 6 Jimi Hendrix 7 The Beatles 8 Queen 9 AC/DC 10 Metallica 11 Deep pink 12 The doorways 13 The Yardbirds 14 Aerosmith 15 Nirvana (God that pained Me, Argh) sixteen Cream 18 Blue Oyster Cult 19 Rush 20 Judas Priest 21 Iron Maiden 22 The conflict 23 Bob Dylan 24 weapons & Roses 25 The Eagles 26 The Stooges 27 Frank Zappa 28 Van Halen 29 KISS 30 Lynyrd Skynyrd 31 David Bowie 32 Neil youthful 33 Helloween 34 U2 35 Bob Seger No offense yet Bon Jovi and Poison do no longer belong close to the best a million,000

I've heard in rumors and news that DEI (Dale Earnhardt Incorporated) is planning to buy Ginn Racing and give them DEI engines. So, what I'm trying to say is that teams like DEI are only allowed to have 4 teams, so we might see the #13 and #14 cut. If the #13 stays, however, DEI would have the points, most likely.

And also, on the Top 35 question, NASCAR will not do anything, probably, but if they do, the 36th place team will be automatically entered, most likely.

the top 35 in car owner points at the track get the spots. so if the 13 is not there then the 36th place team gets it.

PS This is a stupid rule

No the 36 place car would not get into the field. The 13 car would have to fall out of the top 35 before another car could get in. Till then 34 cars would get in with 1 more car outside of the top 35 would get in.

Several possibilities.More than likely would be for a tean out of the top 35 to "buy" the 13 team and secure the points for theirs.

Or the car could stay active and race evryothe race.

the 35 rule is based on owner points not driver points so it doesnt matter who is driving the car!!! if the #13 was to be sold or traded to another team owner then they would be at the end of the charts with no points!

if the 13 car does not go to Indy Than the 36th place car is locked in to the Field

i believe a toyota team will buy the #13 car and get its owner points to help guarentee a starting position the rest of the year

There will be 9 spots open for go or go-homers.
