Re: Excellent job !! Horsepower coming soon
 
The way I see it is if you're capable of going 1.20 or better and have spent the time and money to do so then a factor adjustment is not going to hurt you but maybe someone else. The racer in question has set the benchmark for that combination. Other than Indy, a National Open or heads up how often do you run it out the back door anyway? Then on Sunday it's pretty match a bracket race.

Question, does qualifying at Indy and opens count against the year end average?

Might as well start allowing electronic throttle stops like S/C and S/G in stock and S/S. They are allowed just about everything else in the engine and trans these days !

Tyler is auto and Patterson is auto. Patterson went -1.249 too. 377+17=394

I know you meant 17 not 14, and you've referenced 17 twice now. 4.25% of 377 is 16.0225. Are you trying to tell me that's rounded up to 17? Asking for a friend...

Seems like the same crowd that doesn’t race anymore doesn’t understand when a big HP hit occurs on a combo it affects other racers. And these slower car owners who were behind before but now they are way behind
Are the same crowd thinks it’s ok to have no instant HP at INDY.
Makes no sense. 120 hit is anywhere should get hit .except Open Races
Dan sorry for your loss. I understand friend lol

Yep 14 was incorrect it does round up

James,
C/SA at Indy is a perfect example of how out of whack it is and I, like you want to see a more competitive field of cars. When I raced (1978-1991) it was tighter and if you were behind you worked harder and spent a little bit more. Of course the rules where much stricter and fewer cars with fuel injection.
I don't know what the perfect formula is but does anyone?
