Re: What's your best guess?
Well Dan Jacobs went -1.40 under his NHRA index at the bowling green combo in Gt/G and Larry Stewart in the Sonny Stancil car went -1.46 under in SS/IA at belle rose CIC race .So with 3 tenths added I say that -1.70 is do able in SS.
Barton went 8.7x in the factory shoot out race in gainesville. BB/SA is basically the same weight with an NHRA index of 10.30. So 3 tenths added to it with air being worse most likely in columbus. I say at least -1.70 is possible in stock too. |

Re: What's your best guess?
With the +.30 on the indexes and some letting it all hang out, could there possibly be a 2.00 under?

Re: What's your best guess?
Many SS cars can go 1.5 under those indexes with no AHFS to worry about.

Re: What's your best guess?
I'm not really a betting man,but I think it would be pretty safe bet to say you'll see a 2.00 under run.
Maybe I'm optimistic but I was thinking it would take-1.700 under or so to make the quick 32. Mike Taylor 3601 Last edited by Mike Taylor 3601; 04-22-2014 at 09:09 AM. Reason: spelling |
