clarification please, surely its not fair for someone to enter the qualifiers when they can enter the main event all ready?

means they will most probably finish in top 5, meaning that someone will loose out in getting into the main event :S

Edited by TM - There is nothing preventing a person from entering another Qualifier event even after already being qualified into the Main event.

I entered them all(USA), just in the vague hope that I might qualify. However, IF I qualify and there is a waiting list for other races, I would withdraw from those. I would think just about anyone here would do the same.

I take it this is the Christmas surprise TM referred to earlier? Exclusive releases like this just add that much more value to the bargain that is R2P! Thanks R2P and GMT!

I know I would, but then again I have to qualify first :)

I think that is something the track makers have been working on. There are pictures of those on their web site.
