While we are throwing out ideas, catch this one: At the end of each race with all competitors available watching. Stock and Super Stock. Take four pieces of paper and on one, write 330 on another write 660, on another write 1000, and on the last write 1320. Put these four pieces of paper, folded up in a container and have a competitor from each eliminator pick a piece of paper out. Read it out loud to the crowd gathered, and that would be what the AHFS would base its statistics off of for that event.
Run data is easily aquired and a run can be completed by very simple math in almost all instances. Actually you could even include another slip of paper for MPH if it would help. All this "Playing the AHFS" has gotten dull and has caused alot of ill feelings. Its time to stop all the BS.
The two fastest cars left in class (providing that it is a well populated class) should be a few hundreths apart not a few tenths apart. And that difference should be how well a car works / tuning / driving / wrenching / etc.
