I've been so busy running the racetrack that I don't have a full grasp on the Top Stock/SS cars. Just a few questions...

Will a racer enter his stocker or s/s car in the national event, and race that same car in the Top Stock/SS race? If so, I can see a problem running that event on Friday or Saturday when we will be running class on Friday and the CIC race on Saturday.

If some will compete in both categories using the same car, I can get it done on Thursday during our Test-N-Tune. I know there won't be as many fans on Thursday, but it will give me the oportunity to gather data and information for the following year, just like I did last year for the CIC race.

I have submitted my proposal to Len & Craig for the CIC race in April. Since this is an "exhibition" contest for our fans, and it is not an "official" NHRA class or category event, the AHFS will not apply. The only concern is that if a racer hits the 1.15 to win class on Friday, AHFS will apply.

The CompuLink system is not currently set to handle CIC in stock or super stock, but the "dial-in" is your index for 1st round. Second round dial-in is your first round E-T (drop the thousandth) PLUS 1-second, or your index, whatever is faster. The No Problem system consists a gentleman (me) using the round run sheets from the tower verify each racer's dial-in.

The CIC applies on Saturday for all runs faster than 1.00 under the index. For example...
Round one index dial-in 12.15 ... ran 11.015 = Round two dial-in is 12.01
