Runs of 1.200 or more under the index will be reviewed and adjusted Tuesday following the event. Runs at all NHRA events, including those at altitude factored race tracks, are included in the 1.200-second-or-more-under analysis. This is done to better react to any out-of-line indexes or under-horsepowered combinations. Therefore, at all such events, a horsepower adjustment or index reduction will be initiated Tuesday following the event.
The decision to adjust horsepower or to reduce the index will be at the discretion of the NHRA Tech Department.
It was in your quote of the rules. This is not unprecedented. A car ran -1.40 a few years ago (when -1.40 was the automatic hit), was light at the scales, and his run was DQ'd, and, hence, no HP adjustment in that instance.
