Default Re: National Records vs. the A.H.F.S.

The solution is to make records pay. Currently, setting a record really only pays the engine builder, since you get no points and no money. The engine builder looks good, and may get some new business, but the racer, unless he is also the engine builder, only gets the extra work and expense of a teardown, and his name in the Dragster for a while.

Records should pay points, and maybe at least $200 or so. You should not, however, get points and money for resetting your own record. It would help the AHFS work better. Just like paying points and money for class and qualifying.
