As Jeff Colvert pointed out at the end of his post RE: the national records he has set, the A.H.F.S is a big deterrent to setting new records because of the possibility of running afoulf of that system, if you run really quick.

How are people supposed to set new national records with such a self-defeating system?

Wouldn't it make more sense to disable the A.H.F.S. just during record runs?

I remember when being a national record holder was a really BIG DEAL, and was even worth some advertising dollars; cars had it emblazioned on the top... proudly!

I'd like to see it mean something that significant, again.

Has anybody ever approached NHRA about this?

Makes all kinds of sense, to me...
