I am in favor of using IHRA indexes to save confusion.
I cannot seeing one single NHRA racer not liking the idea of getting an extra 3 tenths advantage during qualifying.

However, keeping the carbed cars separate from the EFI cars may not work because NHRA has equivalent classes for the EFI cars.

Either way, I would enter my EFI T-Bird as an IHRA car because the factored hp is less in IHRA for the same combo, therefore less weight I have to tug around.
