I believe the same thing happened a few years ago in Houston at a LODRS. Fred Henson redlighted in round 1, ran 9.89 in A/SA, and got the street Hemi in the B-body (??) hit for it. Never scaled, fuel checked or tore down. Not saying Fred, or Charley, were doing anything fishy, but it's hardly fair to add HP to a combo without checking ANYTHING.

I always felt (and have heard that in some Divisions it does) that any car that gets automatic HP for -1.200 or more should be torn down automatically to insure all is accurate.
