Default Re: Vegas SS Qualifying - WOW!

Jeff,

Name ONE racer that has received HP based on a run from an Alt. track? They can run -1.50+ which would still be more than -1.15 under the sea level index and still does not even get a look at. They don't even raise the one flag.

You don't get one freebie per half. We ran -1.18 ONCE at a Nat'l and got HP with a 73 Buick 350 Apollo. An earlier pre-smog 350 in a Skylark also went more than -1.15 at the same event was apparently enough to make a "Family" change. And the 71 version of this 350 is allowed a 800cfm quad and we aren't.. Where's the equality in that??

Also in the first half a 72 Camaro and a 78 Corvette each made a hit to make a family change. I wonder if the 78 is now allowed to use heads and intake from a 72 now?? I doubt it. Maybe the Camaro can mold a 78 Vette nose onto the front?????? I would love to use a 72 or older Buick 350 intake instead of the smog infested, spagetti tangled, 70 pound intake we currently use. And I would like to have the header room a Skylark has also. Let's get Bruce Noland started on this...... These "Family" hits are BS!!!

While I'm on a rant......
Why are Competition Eliminator CIC permenant hits now in use at alt. track and not AHFS???

I'd go have a drink, but I don't drink anything stronger than pop.......

but wait, pop used to drink anything!!!!


Until there's a better system............................................ ..

Safe Trips All!
