What I have learned about running off records is does not work because of track altitude and weather conditions when record was set. Unless all records are factored using say SAE dyno horsepower factoring to correct ET.

For example if a record is set in A/S at dutch classic, usually mineshaft, and there is no one racing B/S at this event, and B/S is set at indy in the heat of the summer, the next year at U S NAtionals, B/S will have a Big advantage over A/S if they race off records.

To make it work you have to altitude correct records
