How about all cars, new old or otherwise, get factored what they actually make? This way new cars off the dealer lots could feel they have a chance and more manufacturers might want to sponsor cars that actually sound like they are making impressive horsepower numbers. I don't see Comp Cams wanting to run an ad stating a Stocker with their stuff makes 255hp when it's really making close to 500.

NHRA has the mph and weights, it's a simple formula to recalculate horsepower for all combos quarterly.

Weight breaks and indexes would have to be adjusted obviously.
