SUGGESTION:
Dear NHRA,
If you're going to add additional opportunities for points that will undoubtedly add a layer of confusion to qualifying which as a ticket holding, attending fan, is already difficult enough to accurately follow during live rounds, it's time to either use the jumbo screen as a real time scoreboard during qualifying rounds or bring in/install scoreboards at the venues.
Trying to figure out who's in, who's out, who's #12 then who's 16 is hard enough as it is and then adding bonus points for qualifying just adds to the frustration of leaving not knowing exactly who's where and who earned bonus points.
I guarantee that after a round of qualifying 90% of the people in the stands (racers and teams included) couldn't accurately list positions 1 through 16 and 90% may be low.
You have a screen. You have timing. And when the cars are running there's a perfect opportunity to have a real time scoreboard posted on there between the live camera shots.
It's a low cost, easy and what I would think could be an added element that the fans would appreciate, new and old.
Just my $0.02
