Another question: How do they determine who qualifies Wed. & who qualifies Thursday?

Typically they've split odds/evens in point standings from WoO/Knoxville and maybe even All Stars to try and balance the field. It looks like they did a little bit different balancing this year with WoO drivers, going 1/4/6/8/10 on Wednesday and 2/3/5/7/9 on Thursday. Knoxville seems a bit different as most of the top 10 qualified Wednesday (21, 18, 2KS, 56N, 7W, 96, 49J, 84) so I'm not seeing any kind of pattern there.
Field seemed pretty balanced to me overall. Thursday had a heavier car count but I know there were guys who were originally set for Wednesday needing an extra day to prepare their equipment.

Come on folks, no, you are not allowed to just show up Friday and race. That would be wildly unfair to the rest of the drivers who ran Wed/Thur. Besides, outside of the top 4 finishers in Friday's A, you are still accumulating points that sets the rest of the Saturday lineups.
