Lower the Indexes, 2-3 , and no heads up at Divisonals, but then run class heads up at Divisonals. This would give both the fast guys and the slow cars modivation. No HP hits at Divisonals.........

Re: Index Change Rumor
 

First off, if you don't want heads up runs in your eliminator, go bracket racing!!!!

For those of you with "slow" combinations ( based on index), are you aware you can request horsepower to be taken off of your combo???

As far as this rumor goes, I keep in contact with my SRAC rep regularly and receive his email updates. I have heard nothing on this subject. So it seems to me its just a rumor.

Re: Index Change Rumor
 

.5 lower would put me running a 8.70 to get in that's never going happen in my ole car.

Re: Index Change Rumor
 

Coming from a guy that has 2 cars in division 1 that will no longer run in the top 30. Why would you want no heads-up races at the divisional series ?
This is a performance based category. lets not try to turn this into a Full bracket class. Lowering the indexes again will do nothing but hurt the class. Yes the factoring system needs work.

Re: Index Change Rumor
 

Lowering indexes 2-3 would definitely upset my program. My best run all year in good air was .35 under..What were the great things that happened last time they took 3/10’s off?...and yes I do work on my car,but evidently,I must have done it wrong.......Victor Penrod

I would no longer be able to run Superstock......Both my personal cars will
barely run .5 on a GOOD track and there is not the money in budget to pick them up another .3 or .4 tenths (Would take a new $20K plus engine for
either one). .5 off index and lose 1/3 of the field which is what we do not
NEED!

I very seldom disagree with you......
This time I do.

Re: Index Change Rumor
 

Bryan , I too, wonder where all these rumors come from.
Off-season boredom, I would guess.
So let me ask. If any of you have FIRST HAND info from someone at NHRA or from an SRAC rep., please share it with us ,right here.
