The Qualifier is the first obstacle set in Wipeout. It has 4-5 obstacles in it. The second obstacle is the Sucker Punch, and the third is the Big Balls. During Season 2 episodes: 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 12, 14, the Sucker Punch was removed from the course. In Season 4, the Sucker Punch had been declared retired. It was replaced with an obstacle named Driver’s Ed. It consists of three spinning steering wheels with airbags that explode in the contestants' faces and two gas pedals that aim for the groin section. In Winter, Spring, and some Summer Wipeout episodes of Season 4 and Winter and Summer Wipeout of Season 5, the Qualifier only has four obstacles. In Season 6, two obstacles: the Failboxes and Tropic Blunder are the second obstacle. Each has eight turns to be the second obstacle. In Season 7, the Sucker Punch returned with a modified look.
