And, for the heck of it, maybe throw in 1 point for each pole position won?

I don't know about that but it sure is interesting the differences and similarities. But man oh man would the top35 thing be SOOOOO much different. One good finish even now would be all it took to get solidly in the TOP35.

But I would still prefer NHRA qualifying. Defending Series Champ, Defending Race Champ, Can't cut the speed to qualify, GO HOME!!! WHO Cares, WHAAhHHHH Your SLOW!!!
