they take a close group of 16 cars, could be 9 second ars, could be 12 second cars... all depends on what shows up. those 16 people pair off and race, first 88 winners get a grand, that you get to bet on your following races with if you so choose, winner gets 10 grand. So the winner is pretty much guarinteed to win 11 grand, 7 other people could walk away with a grand, if noone bets any of the $ they won for making it to the final 8

But, you can't run a whole lot faster then what your qualifying passes were... or they will boot you out for sandbagging.

It's likda like running in a index class, once the 16 cars are chosen. But, the idea is you run your car as hard as you can... like we all do 100% of the time anyway.

It's a haul for me as well, but should be worth it.

way I figure it, there's not gonna be all too many times I can go race with the posibility of winning some $ with a car like mine, never mind 10 grand.

I don't think for 2 seconds that I will win anything, but you know how it goes, you can't win if you don't play.
