It's unfortunate that Paul will have to qualify on time. I imagine that there will be no more than 45 cars in Martinsville, though, especially if Travis and the 28 team don't make the trip.
I would really like to see TK pick up a sponsor because that team has potential. I think they are capable of running in the top-20 on a regular basis. Kvapil sounded optimistic that they will return later this year, even if they do not make the journey to Martinsville. Still, would be great if Yates could get 3 teams into the top-35.
I expect Logano to struggle at Martinsville, so Paul should be able to jump over him and into the top-35 if he has a decent run.
