I just don't want to spend $20K or so on a retirement hobby, just to get torpedoed by something that I never saw coming.
Again, I have no interest in setting a record or racing at Indy- I just would like to be able to comfortably run under index.

@ 1.20 under index then that automatically gets what is referred to as "Tuesday Horsepower" or "instant h.p." ... i.e. On Tuesday following the conclusion of that event, a percentage of hp increase ( based on how far under the 1.20 threshold the racer ran) gets added to the current factored h.p.

There have been times where a racer ran 1.19 under
once and for the rest of the review period ( every 6 months) never ran more than .999 under index again, and the combo did not get a hp increase at the end of the review period.
