1.) Aftermarket casting's improvement addressed with real numbers.

2.) If an aftermarket casting exists then acceptance given due consideration HP assigned where appropriate to gain reasonable access for racers.

3.) AHFS done with an engine family curve with upper and lower limits established using valid statistical methods (Upper limits are not to be compared to averages, the current method statistically invalid.)

4.) HP factors assigned to engines based on statistical curves (High School Statistics)

5.) HP adders be done with real numbers. (10 years of constant 4-6HP doesn't cut it. One engine actually got 5HP off, and then subsequently 18HP added, how so? )

6.) Bogus intake runner cc numbers all evaluated. (Some divisions gave away as many as 38 ccs over stock, many routinely gave 10-15ccs, others got 1cc, zero parity in this give away)

7.) 1.0 weight breaks in stock and super stock(0.5 breaks added only when it makes sense)(percentage weight adder for sticks to combine with automatics. This must be evaluated for a sliding scale relative to cubic inches.) GT cars to start at 7.0 New GT class at 6.0 for old hypo factory engines only (Boss 429's, Hemis, High Riser Fords, LT-1 SBC, L-88's, Tunnel Port Fords, Tunnel Port Pontiacs, AMC dual quads, W-30 Olds, Stage II Buicks, 440 6pacs, 421 Pontiac SDs, 340 6-PACs, others? (all aftermarket heads/blocks all accepted to keep cost down.)

8.) Porting allowed in stock with no epoxy or welding. Alum heads compared for angle milling, welding with a stock casing for compliance. CC rule applies (This will only work if cc numbers are completely redone)

9.) If race is limited on entry, then only one car entry allowed per driver(second driver same team, ok).

10.) Heads up racing all Events only if 1-7 is followed. All cars run class, if no class opponent, then they run against the others against their index no breakout. (regular eliminator to follow on Sunday, these runs can be substituted for practice runs if need be)

11.) Tech done on protest with Real money to protest, and do it right. Cheating will stop instantly, racers wont protest unless they are willing to lose the big cash, and racers found legal will go home compensated. Records, random compliance done as time, weather conditions, personnel is allowed.

12.) HP committee to be made up of Engine Builders, Racers, NHRA officials in equal numbers. Minutes taken and published.

Advantages:

Parity
Compliance
Return to performance, possible sponsor involvement(all left to support NMCA, NMRA etc)
Maintain bracket Eliminator
Less time/more excitement
Fan approval
Return of way cool performance cars now deleted from competition

Not getting all the cool cars/engines back into action is punishable by 30 minutes of listening to Biden, Hillary, and Odumass argue what they wont do in Pakistan. A horrible fate for anyone with an IQ over 50.
