8 Possible Provisionals ??

[MUD MAESTRO]

Can a true "Crown Jewel" race be afforded 8 provisional starting spots and still be considered a crown jewel event? What ever happened to Race your way in? I say the only legitimate Crown Jewel is the World 100. Your thoughts?

Ya gotta have more than one Jewel in your Crown

It is dumb...gettin as bad as NASCRAP. I understand THESE people are in the 'points' but if you cant race your way in you should get 50 pts and we'll see ya at the next race pat on the back.

Great hot take.... roll eyes.

And the world 100 had provisionals for guys that went really fast around there for one lap.

There's likely not gonna be 8 provisionals.

2 Lucas Oil- EPJ, Flinner
2 MLRA- Phillips, Eckrich
2 Lucas Oil Emergency provsionals--- not applied because everybody has made the show.
DNQ race winner-- this guy has a choice. So it's really not a provisional
Past champion-- Wallace, this has been a provisional for a while now.

So really it's only gonna be 5 or 6 at the most.

Maybe start paying attention to the actual racing instead of some preliminary line up sheet.

Ummmmm. NASCAR doesn't even have enough cars to award provisionals anymore.

Great comparison. Lmao.

[old fan]

yeah that's the only way if you are fast you should make it not the good ole boy syndrome

Can it be a "Crown Jewel"......Lucas Oil regulars against the regional stars?

Then Knoxville, DWTC and such aren't either.

World 100 is Lucas/WoO and regional guys. So by your theory World 100 isn't a crown jewel either.

[cgrace]

agree 8 is too many. heck could have taken one more from each heat and two provs

What is a 'Crown Jewel" The size of the purse? The competition? How many fans attend? IMO, its the one race that defines Late model racing and is the one race every Late Model driver dreams of winning.

Should be three provisionals 1.lucus oil 2.past champion and former track champion

Idk bud dnt watch NASCRAP . Havent watched it in about 4 years. Lost my heart when Earnhardt died, lost my soul when they went to the 'playoff top 12' crap. Started liking Kyle Bush but when they let him get into the title deal lost it all together

[old fan]

what is the big deal if its lucas quist being involved was never like that at the 1971 world 100 so it should n't be now either

Read Brian Birkhofer could have used another car and started the Show Me. The other car I assumed would be Justin Kay's. Believe Birky knew he didn't earn the past winner provisional spot. The guy is and always be a class act.
