Make sure you complete both qualifying laps at Talladega.

Actually, Talladega mandates 2 qualifying laps. Sounds like your only running 1 lap. Chas -- ------- Chasman Simulator ***world http://sim

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? -- JMG (Jeff George) If I sound like a ranting madman, it's probably because of my insanity. ======================================================================= Who are you and who am I?

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." Jim

Hi Jeffrey, It means that you have to run 2 laps after the green flag falls. Hope this helps. Chas
