Im NOT saying anyone like Bill is illegal as I know him personally but the car IS a maximum effort (and a nice one) plus it is like some say.... a "Paper" car but its still deemed a legal combination by NHRA and thats all that matters here. If one can run fast then so can any others that are in the same combo IF the effort, work, desire, expertise, and money are applied to it. Just having soft indexes to run off of means nothing and makes stock eliminator more like bracket racing. If everyone could do it we all would be world champions.

X-techman, go back and read what I said, I am not complaining about anyone's car or combo. I own a car and yeah it's was dream to own a class and it can run under theindex, not far but under. If I had to run the baddest man in the land it wouldn't concern me and I wouldn't complain because I know what I spent and I can gaurantee that other car has more money in their stuff than me. I think alot of these questions about hp revisions are based on the performance of certain vehicles. Right now everyone has issues with '08 Cobra Jet because of the percieved soft HP factor given by NHRA. Has the car hit the trigger? has it won every race enetered? yet alot folks don't like it's percieved advantage. Are the guys complaining about that car not working on their stuff?
I want someone to answer what good it will do to adjust the trigger fir hp or the index? Makes no difference if they add .50 tenths to the SS/IA index to me because a car like Bryan Worner's will still be 1.00 faster than me on most days lol!
