AHFS and the CJs

Superfan1 · 10-09-2009, 09:36 AM

The AA/SA (9.44) and A/SA (9.73) records are now held by Jimmy Holzman and Chad Holzman respectively after their runs at Kearney last weekend; however they did not receive a HP adjustment. After rechecking the section on the AHFS on the NHRA website; I am assuming that because the numbers that came up on the scoreboard (9.68) for Jimmy, and (9.97) for Chad were not 1.40 under their respective indexes, they are not subject to a HP increase. If my interpretation is incorrect, please shed additional light on this subject.

Its official, the CJ's have made a mockery of Stock Eliminator.

You have it right Bill but the 9.83 (1.42 under) today by the stick car in Virginia should get atleast the stick guys 14hp

Congratulations to all who shared in the mockery. The Ford guys are proud of our little 331 cubic inch blown CJ's. Maybe next year Brian Wolfe will get the Nobel Peace prize.

Or maybe next year there will be a Supercharged class ! LOL

Thanks, Denny. Before I left to go out, I checked DRC but nothing was posted; now that I have returned home, I see the run by Fezell. He qualified #2 (9.91) at Z-max; I spoke to him after the run and he told me that he didn't like the clutch in the car at all. With a 9.830, maybe he has changed it.

I don't see any distinction between the stick and auto combos as far as AHFS goes, they should both get hit

NHRA does :-)

Chad, that is a brilliant idea, why didn't you come up with it after the 396 got hit?

actually if you look at the class guide, there is no distinction between the stick combo and the auto combo, therefore both SHOULD get the HP. if the factor drops below 7.5 does that make them ineligible? serious question as I'm not sure
