I don't feel like any of my combos should be burdened with an index hit just because I was smart enough to build one. We're all "playing a game". If you don't like "playing a game" in the style that you're "playing" it then please feel free to "play" it the way that I do. Don't admonish me for "playing" it differently than you do.
I've never requested a HP reduction on any of my combos although they have gotten reductions from other Racers requests. I won't "play" that part of the "game". When I start on a combo, I know what I'm getting into and what I have to work with. Did you not do the same?

Billy I wasn't trying to admonish you. My point was what makes a combo underrated? Is it just a number and what is that number under what weather conditions? We all have been playing the game for several years. I'm tired of doing it. Extra oil, extra weight, timing backed off, short shifting and ect. Now with this new rule we have to play it even more. I'd love to be able to go back to the way it was years ago where you ran your car close to how fast it could go. We could argue about the parts I'm able to use but that should be in a different post. I also never asked for a HP change to any combo I've run nor any aftermarket parts. I really didn't want the car I have. Never been a fan of the 70 Camaro's but at 20 grand the price was too good to pass up. I believe most combo's on kill that have been worked on under great weather conditions can run 1.20 plus under.
