Looks like the committee only saw the total run data, which of course was not refactored to sea level.
That means all runs of 1.00, 1.05, 1.10, 1.15, and 1.20 under at an altitude track is included without being refactored. Those runs at altitude tracks cannot be included when talking about the total number of runs of 1.10 under the index. It also excludes altitude runs when talking about how many runs were made by new vs old cars. There were many runs made by old cars of 1.10 under at altitude tracks and are not refactored to sea level.
I therefore stand by my original numbers showing real runs of 1.10 or more under the index and which group (new vs old cars) made those runs.
OF SPECIAL NOTE......I do want to make it very clear in this post that data that went into the actual AHFS for 2010 from altitude tracks concerning any horsepower change WAS correctly refactored to sea level.

Travis,
The way I understand the new ahfs is that they are not going to refactor the runs back to sea level index but apply the run against the local class index. I also understand NHRA is looking at the altitude adjustments on a track by track basis. So those numbers are the numbers and classes that would of been hit in 2010 if the 1.1 under cic rule were to be put in place.
Bryon, I agree, I think we all learned lots of people have been managing their combinations and will run just under what they have to save their combinations. Key word being "most".
Mike sorry if I put words in your mouth about saving any of your brothers or your fathers combinations.
Dave I missed that one that is why I made sure I said "think" since I wasn't sure what combo you guys run. I guess when I saw Gary's or Sorenson's impressive runs and how many other cars across the country that would of been hit by these one time weather conditions and these are just a couple of the old style combinations that would of been hit.
Jim, the new rule NHRA is looking at putting in doesn't include national opens just LRDS and National events , NHRA's original proposal included national opens.
