This will make AHFS work

The goal as I understand it is to factor motors down to a more even playing field, Regardless what has made the combination that way.
People race for pride and MONEY.
People need smaller goals than Eliminator so more people share success in their racing.
1)Do what it takes to pay BIG money with sponsors and /or cash for class. If this means reduce Eliminator money so be it. Give a Trophy and ?$.
2) That means fewer classes to pay. Make it so Class is a challenge to win to earn the money and that brings pride too.
3)Decrease classes in SS and S to 32 each. This helps increase the money available per class to help with #1 and #2
4)Correct class runs et to sea level. Use this for factoring if needed. If ET warrants factor -tear down at that event to prove legal for class win and factor.
5)New motors only by application to NHRA and factored on closest previous family motor. Old Motors not previously in competition start by applying.
6)Move Indexes down .5 and make trigger -.65 using this number. Runs on class finals subject to review for sand bagging.
7)64 car fields-32 class winners under index and 32 quick qualifiers....left.

These things could reward MORE people for hard work, PAY more to win class. Identify bogus motor HP.
faster and if weather is used it will protect the racers from killer conditions at one race when they only race in average weather.
