Week 5 is your last chance
Each week is a clean slate. If you did not qualify yet, you can still play week 5 and win one of the last seats in San Diego.

Wondering if this is a mistake, I won Saturday 0-750 but got 7th place in Sunday in the 0-750 so I don't think I qualified for a place at the live final.
Hi Stan, yes there was a mix-up. We'll correct the article soon. Sorry for that, thank you. 🙂
