Default Re: What will happen on Tuesday?

What SHOULD happen is 3.25% adjustment 5 times bringing them to 372HP which is still a ways off, but would be a good start. 372HP would make them natural A cars with a weight of 3145. Then they would just take some weight out to get to 3145 and work on getting more e.t. out of the cars. Not exactly sure, but I am thinking that this is the first time more than one competitor with the same combination has triggered instant HP.

Now for what will happen. 3.25% will be 11HP, and NHRA may realize that they are a little bit to fast so let's just throw about 20HP on them instead of just 11. This will slow them down to only running 10.20s in D in bad air.
