Old New Mieshaft Rule

rboyle · 02-18-2022, 03:15 PM

If the -.95 new Mineshaft rule had been in effect still then Pomona would NOT have gone mineshaft. Wonder how many would have proceeded to run better than -1.00 would have held back had the old new rule stayed in effect?

Lets just do away with mineshaft period....

Mineshaft Rule is no longer in place
Automatic HP moved to 1.30 under
ALL runs count for average, except .35 and slower
No Triggers
ALL combos are reviewed at end of year

This will allow a little more room to run your stuff out...while also appeasing those in favor of the AHFS.

Is the end of year average still 85 under for HP consideration?

I just appreciate the bottom half of the field stepping up and making it mineshaft. I am on my 3rd set of exhaust valves in as many passes and was not needing any more weight put in my car because it is already slow. And when you have the 2 fastest in the country with my combo over there and one of them trying to sell his and prove how fast it is, I wasn't happy...at all.

May want to check P/V clearance at split overlap or improve angle of piston to valve.

As I type this there has been 2 runs that are not considered mineshaft from the Div 2 race.
There are 19 runs of one second under that are mineshaft runs.
How is the AHFS suppose to work when this many runs get excluded?
This is only with the first round of the winternational,2nd round should have some more runs of one second under. There is a AA/SA heads up run coming this morning also.

Rizzoli pulled it off. I didn't think he could beat Jimmy D.

The conditions at South Georgia were VERY FAST. Maybe a lot of Division 2 racers decided to save their average until the Baby Gators?

With the mineshaft rule at .950, I doubt you would see many fast runs at all.
