Need Help with GDB Qualifying

Daveybird

Okay, so whenever I try to make a starting grid in a track, the cars still start randomly.

Here's what my GDB looks like:

DBirdTacky
{
Filter Properties = SuperSpeedWay 2005 SRGrandPrix OWChallenge *
Attrition = 30
TrackName = Daveybird Speedway Tacky
EventName = Daveybird Speedway Tacky
GrandPrixName = Daveybird Speedway Tacky //this must be the same as event name in order to sort circuit info correctly.
VenueName = RSR Tracks
Location = RSR Town
Length = 1/3 Mile
TrackType = Dirt Clay Oval
Track Record = Daveybird, 13.58
FormationAndStart=2 // formation lap with rolling start (safety car leads the field and peels off into the pits)
RollingStartLoc=0
TerrainDataFile=DBirdTacky.tdf
GarageDepth = 2.00

AIDryGrip = 0.9266
FormationSpeedKPH = 44

// DefaultScoring overrides
FormationLapSpeedKPH = 100
RaceLaps = 400
RaceTime = 240


// Time-of-day lighting
SkyBlendSunAngles=(-20.5,-1.0,11.5,25.5)

ShadowMinSunAngle=15.0

Latitude = 42 // degs from Equator (range: -90 to 90, positive is Northern Hemisphere)
NorthDirection = 275 // the direction of North in degrees (range: 0 to 359)
RaceDate = // default date for the race

SunriseAmbientRGB = (120,120,110)
SunriseDirectionalRGB = (255,248,198)
SunriseFogRGB = (204,174,240)

DayAmbientRGB = (200,200,200)
DayDirectionalRGB = (255,255,255)
DayFogRGB = (203,214,236)

SunsetAmbientRGB = (130,130,120)
SunsetDirectionalRGB = (255,248,198)
SunsetFogRGB = (204,196,122)

NightAmbientRGB = (10,19,46)
NightDirectionalRGB = (30,30,30)
NightFogRGB = (0,0,0)

Qualifying
{
Scott Bloomquist =
Billy Moyer =
Daveybird =
Chub Frank =
}
PitStopStrategies
{
Scott Bloomquist = 2 - 18,40
Billy Moyer = 2 - 19,41
Daveybird = 2 - 18,40
Chub Frank = 2 - 29,41
}
SettingsFolder = DaveybirdSpeedway
SettingsCopy = DaveybirdSpeedway.svm
SettingsCopy = DaveybirdSpeedway_Easy.svm
SettingsAI = DaveybirdSpeedway.svm
Qualify Laptime = 13.50
Race Laptime = 13.50
}

I make sure to uncheck all the preliminary sessions (qualify, warmup, etc), and to set my starting grid position to Current Season. I also triple or quadruple-checked all the participating drivers' names to make sure they match with the ones in the GDB. What am I doing wrong?
 
Have you tried to add some Qualy Times?
Like (Times are in Seconds):

Qualifying
{
Scott Bloomquist = 93.354
Billy Moyer = 93.6
Daveybird = 93.864
Chub Frank = 94.001
}

Yes. I think the problem is that I need to include all the drivers in the roster, because when I did that, it worked!
