Bobby, I will tune in. But I think you should have some ideas to get the
thought process going. This is quickly off the top of my head. Feel free
to modify it, crucify it, add to it, etc. We have a NHRA manageable time
range of .85 to 1.20. This is counterproductive to what we think NHRA
and the racers want to accomplish. All of this years races that were
mineshaft are coming back in next year. That will make roughly 50% of
the combos up for review based on YTD numbers. We need to narrow up
the times NHRA wants to manage. What if we suggested something along
this line: The average must change to -1.00 and 2 hits of -1.10 to get a
review. A hit of -1:20 is an automatic NHRA review, where they can weigh
the variables (Weather, Current H.P. Manufacturer Relations!!! etc.) and make their (Hopefully consistent) adjustments. Nobody wants an -.85 under car, take a hit at -.85, and now they have a .70 to .75 under car.
If you get a hit at -1.00 and you can still go -.90 under, its not so bad.
Great idea? Lets compare them to the others. Thanks, J.R.
