Re: HP adjustments after the Dutch - posted
I don't know the racer in question, and I don't want to seem like I'm just picking on this one racer; however, everyone knows the rules when it comes to drawing attention to themselves when going fast and qualifying at the top of the sheet. You get torndown, you better be legal, for better or for worst. What I don't understand, and PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong, the racer in question goes 1.20 under + , and what doesn't think he's going to the barn at a race notorious for record runs and teardown? On top of that, we have a debatable performance gain or loss issue due to the exhaust valve situation, whatever. So what I want to know is why there was no year suspension for a clear violation of the engine specs. No HP, no repercussions, BO is right, why is it a case by case issue when the rules are black and white. I've seen and heard too many racers get more than this for less. My opinion to this racer, you wanna go fast you better make sure your engine "assembler" keeps you out of trouble or hope for the best. You got lucky.
