30) #12-Keselowski/Penske: 424, +78
31) #38-Gilliland/Front Row: 417, +71
32) #47-Ambrose/JTG: 413, +67
33) #77-Hornish/Penske: 392, +46
34) #34-Kvapil/Front Row: 374, +28
35) #37-Conway/Front Row: 355, 9 points ahead of 36th

these teams/ drivers must qualify by speed:
36) #7-Gordon/RGM/BAM: 346, 9 points out of 35th
37) #26-Said/Stremme/Latitude43: 343 -12
38) #36-Bliss/Baldwin: 307 -48
39) #13-Papis/Germain: 275 -80
40) #55-McDowell/Waltrip/Prism: 230 -140

All 3 Front Row cars manage to stay in for now. Just need to a decent run in Martinsville to beat Robby Gordon, and they should be set for the year. I don't think the 7 or 26 cars will make every race, so if Conway can just hang on for a couple of weeks, he should be good to go.

As for the 26 team, this is probably the end for them, at least as far as making races goes...

I don't understand the deal with the #55 this year....

The 55 is now a PRISM Motorsports car. It is no longer affiliated with MWR. The "real" 55 is now the 56 at MWR. They let the number 55 go back to NASCAR, and PRISM purchased it.

The 55 is just a team car to #66-Dave Blaney. That's why they're starting and parking...

Think about Robby's situation- has spent all that money on buying new manufacturers and poor results every year. As far as the 26 team, didn't they buy equipment from Roush or did they just get the number and the points? Either way, they have run ridiculous.

What puzzles me is that even Stremme looked better in that car than Boris.

They are better off with Stremme, IMO.

I think Boris is a capable driver if he has the equipment to back it up. Maybe Stremme will get them back into the top-35, we'll have to wait and see...

Stremme made the race because they didn't qualify. ;) lol

Yeah, Front Row is still hanging in their in the top-35... very much so on the bubble, though... 33rd, 34th, and 35th...!
