Teams that failed to make the field in first round qualifying and are 26th or worse but are guaranteed to make the CMT300 based on owners points: #40-Sterling Marlin(14th in points and he missed a race); #16-Kevin Lepage(16); #97-Chad Little(17)
#26-Johnny Benson(18); #21-Michael Waltrip(20); #50-Wally Dallenbach(23); and #35-Darrell Waltrip(champ). The four teams that would miss the race if things stayed the same: #07-Danny Pardus(no prov’s); #79-Ken Bouchard(no provs-didn’t make an attempt); #00-Buckshot Jones(45th in owners points using Stavola Bros); and #71-Dave Marcis(44)-(FYI-this is not bashing any of these drivers, just stating a fact).
