It can take the pressure off for the remainder of the season knowing that you already have a spot. Competitors who earn those coveted provisional spots will have the pressure taken off them. They can improve their position by qualifying well during the time trials, heat races and qualifying races during the Grand Nationals but know they have at least a provisional spot guaranteed. But I believe the local guys will be tough to beat. Ticket prices for the qualifier will be the same as Thursday Thunder.
