Re: What if NHRA granted you a 20% reduction on h.p. on any
Heck of a reduction. Why would anything get a 20% reduction?

I'd be ditching the AMX and finding a '71 Opel GT. 20% off 75 HP looks pretty good to me!

My old 1988 Cadillac Cimarron, 2.8 - 125/155. - 20% = 124hp.
Oh yeah! Jim .

The tech department may not like a bunch of new combos to have to study up on. But then again, they might welcome the challenge ? We all know that it is unlikely NHRA would allow a 20% decrease, but it does raise the question of what combo would be the most fun to try. IMO, I feel that almost every combo that has not been tried in the last several years ( or never has been tried at all ) is because the combo is over factored to begin with and racers feel it would be a waste of time and money to try it.
