The LS1 was singled out when it was given the 12 HP (there were several other cars that went more than 1.25 under and did not get HP) This was pointed out and presented to the committee.
Okay, whatever the reasoning behind it, no cars got hp this year for running 1.25 under a factored index. I was one, Byron Setters, Angelo Phillips and a couple more.
Seeing it's still the same year, I wouldn't expect to see it happen.
Next year , with a revised or rewritten rule and a prominent warning, it probably WILL happen.
Then again, who knows?
