Default Vette Doctors Pro 8 Points

Just a question, Paul Major taking the win against Joe Iervolino and then was disqualified for being under weight (2976 lbs). I was just wondering why he received a point even though he was disqualified.
Thanks

"By staging your car in the first round of eliminations, you will receive 1 point."

That is correct. Each of the 8 qualifiers get one point for staging the car. When disqualified he lost is win point and his opponent was awarded the win point

Looks as if you lost your ability to spell. That is a sure sign of someone that is posting under an "alias", every single post is about Pauls zo6 and one post about the vette drs just to keep it even. There is billboard space available on rt 9 right by the track for this kind of stuff!!!

That is for the general corvette challenge. The pro-8 you need to qualify for then you get a point for qualifying.

I know what you're thinking because I have mistaken his identity as well. No, it's not the person you're thinking of (from the other thread), trust me. It's actually kind of funny, but it's not who you think it is.
