Sorta. Running more than a 1.00 under isn't that bad a thing especially for the LT1 in stock. Running 1.20 under is a different story.
The advantage that we have for the LT1 in stock is that there are so many people that run it across many classes. Plus a lot of them go rounds in eliminations. This is huge because all those rounds are counted vs. just one for qualifying. You will see that the elimination rounds are most often the slower runs.
It is all about the averages as long as it is kept slower than the 1.20 under. Keep the average for the class and engine family below the .85 threshold then it becomes no harm no foul for the 1.00 triggers.
Sheer dumb luck and dilution is a wonderful thing.
