I think Doug Bender or Jody Aberts may be the only people who could answer that one, Cody.
Usually, at some point, Doug, Jody or somebody posts the eliminations by round, which would give you the count for each class. I never saved the previous postings about the eliminations, so I'm no help there.

I heard 125 cars, but I would guess that included show cars also.  Though a few of them did race also.

Pro FE was the quickest 8 cars on the property.  Can't really say how many in Hot or Cool FE?  I went out 2nd round of Hot with a .-008 light.  My guess is 24+ in Hot, as I think it was at least 5 rounds to win.  Just under that in Cool?  This is just my guess, so I could be way off. 

I know it took 4 rounds to win the "bird race", I got a bye 2nd round with best light(.018) first round.  That was the free consolation race for anyone loosing 1st-2nd round of either class.  You win a laser cut BIRD with the engine size of your choice.

I'd really like to know how many people and cars attended, by year.  It would be interesting to see how the event has grown up over time.  Maybe Doug or Jody will chime in with the details...

I was talking to "Beaver Bob" in the tower and he said they had 128 cars keyed in for first round(s) of racing, and maybe another 40 or so in the car show that did not take a light.

Considering the most FE's i've ever seen at one racing event was maybe 25 cars that is awesome.
