Great question

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

Mr Hill. NO turn it loose. That's the word from Jeff Conley thur our Div-3 director Will.

Turn it loose?!?

Hell, I just want to see Dad turn on the car, LOL. Challenger hasn't ran for almost 3 years at this point.

Chris,
He's just waiting for the warranty to run out? ;-)

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

I hope they don't have it. Then I hope they tear down any combo that is considerably faster than the next closest. Combos that are .4 to .5 faster than all other cars with the same combo should be checked. That includes engine and trans/converter. I have a feeling that lockup converters are/have made their way into stock. Sorry if I start drama again, lol

They’re gonna tell us after rd one of class 😒😒

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

Never did see an announcement from NHRA last year, and there plenty of folks faster than 1.20 and none got HP after the event. Wish they would make a formal announcement like they did couple years ago.

"The AHFS is used to review and evaluate runs in Stock and Super Stock for possible horsepower adjustments. The review is conducted twice per racing season. The two reviews are compiled individually so the data is not cumulative. Runs included in the AHFS database are limited to final qualifying runs (Q data) and all elimination runs (E data) at all NHRA National, Sports National and LODRS events. (At events where class eliminations are run, all class elimination runs are included in the AHFS database. Only the first round of class is part of qualifying and therefore is part of the "Q" database.)The "Q" data and "E" data files are the official data gathered by the NHRA timing system and processed through the NHRA Information Technology department. NHRA "Q" data and "E" data are the only data files used for the AHFS. No runs made during National Opens, test and tune, time trials,1/8 mile events or races within a race (i.e. Jegs Allstar eliminations, Stock / Super Stock Combos or other races that are not part of a season long points championship) are included in any review. "

I would feel better if NHRA would publish the exception to the rules of AHFS for next week's U.S. Nationals.

Took me 3 times reading it to understand it. Dang

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

Why doesn't NHRA get Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham to flip a coin on the line just before the first qualifying shot! Heads, AHFS in affect, tails, no AHFS.

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

Heard officially today that there is NO ahfs for Indy!

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

That means you can take the pick up and turn it loose. LOL

Lockup converters are legal in stock if they were OEM equipment which would include many 78 and later vehicles.
"Lockup converter permitted if OEM-equipped with lockup converter and OEM transmission is used"

Jim Mantle V/SA 6632

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

Most late model stockers are NOT using the OEM trans from that era !

t 200-c, thm 350 c

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

hmmm.... lockup legal eh

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

Super stock entries at 158 sunday 8/25/2019....

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

I wad thinking the same thing on my Olds wagon

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

I don't think he is thinking of the same "lockup" converter I'm talking about lol. Similar idea but the high dollar ones the grudge, Radial vs the World guys use. Last I heard... NOT legal in stock lol. But a 1 to1 ratio between engine and trans with no slip would be FAST.

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

Waiting to see if someone is running dump valve in trans to control converter slip like the grudge, radial cars run

The old Griner/ Coan centrifugal lock up has been outlawed for 40 years. Not sure how you'd cut a light with one for breakout racing.
A mid class Stocker just does not have the oats to pull the extra weight of a lock up clutch disc..At best, a trade off...ET for MPH , IMHO.

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

Want 1 to 1 in high gear put a stick and a clutch in it!

Re: AHFS At Indy, Yes Or No
 

Jeff Stout, exactly what I was referring to. You can set it up to come on whenever. And the ones that could use it are high rpm, 700+hp stockers
