Make sure you complete both qualifying laps at Talladega.

Actually, Talladega mandates 2 qualifying laps.  Sounds like your only
running 1 lap.

This may be a stupid question, but does this mean that you have to:

a) run 2 laps after the green flag comes down to officially qualify, or

b) run 2 separate 1 lap qualifying runs?

You run 2 laps after the green.  Due to the restrictor plates it takes
a couple of laps to get up to full speed.  You should be hearing your
spotter say, "One more time around."

Hi Jeffrey,

It means that you have to run 2 laps after the green flag falls.

Hope this helps.

In N1 or N2 the qualifying run is NOT over until you get the checkered
flag. 2 green flag qual laps at Tally...

Keep going until you see the checkered flag.
