Of course, qualifying means nothing here.

@Scott, yes in race trim, as Beagle said Robby only needed to stroll around.Q here is only for bragging and pit selection (which doesn't mean much here either)

I'm sure all of the top 35 is in race trim. Qualifying doesn't matter here anyway, as long as you're locked in the race.

I'd expect a couple of the GOGH cars to be near (or on) the pole when everything is said and done. They'll race like crap, but will be fast for a lap or two.

You were right about at least one of the GOGH cars. At this point in time, Joe has qualified 4th, and good for him.

Robby very happy with the car. Very balanced in the draft. All good.

Boy, it really is interesting to see the difference in speeds between practice ( in the draft with others ) and speeds out there alone in qualifying. The real-time Jayski qualifying page tells the tale:
