I mean your kids I guess can inherit it but if you have the ability to go faster than -1.15 and won't use it unless it's a no AHFS race then when do you intend to use it? Final at Indy in a heads up? We were better off keeping the -1.20 instant hit all along and having NHRA raise the floor from -.350 to -.500 but I realize it was not up to a vote.
Rich , A lot of people can go 1.00-1.20 under at No Problen in February,Gainesville or South Georgia in March then struggle to run .90-1.00 under at Topeka in July. What is the right standard? Factoring the weather in is the only way this s—t might ever work and I don’t know that that will help. And I agree with you that we were all better off with the old rules. I think the real problem is that the people who made the decisions on the AHFS revisions don’t understand stock & super stock racers. Mike McMahan 2543 H/SA
