You are correct on the streamliners being allowed to run the long course. %00
cc's at around 270mph ain't to shabby. Besides there are several cars every
year that has qualified at 175.001 or so and demand they be allowed to run the
long course. In a lot of cases thats the max they can run but still run the
full five miles while others set in hot fire suits waiting to run. Whats fair?
