2nd round qualifying is over: Only six drivers made attempts, Dennis Setzer was the fastest 2nd round attempt at 160.979mph. None of the six were able to break into the top 36. LJ Racing withdrew from the race prior to 2nd round qualifying. The team, which was out of provisionals coming into Darlington, earned one more provisional start by attempting to qualify for the field through first round. Car owner Joe Falk decided that he wanted to save that provisional for next week’s event at Richmond and instructed his team to pack it up early this weekend. The #91 team has a sponsor lined up for that race. DW made the race once again on the past champions provisional(his 14th used). Dave Marcis missed the race for the 15th time, he didn’t go out and make an attempt, knowing the speed was not there. Steve Grissom once used his 15th provisional, the team is also out until Rockingham. To see who used provisionals and missed the race, go to Jayski’s Provisional Page . (09-05-1998)
