Tony I think the better question is why an average of .86 under warrants an 8 hp increase.

I know it went one second under twice to trigger a review but why so much of an inccrease. The current system definitely harms the slower car with the same combo.

How can a system ever work if it punishes a combo that only averages .85 under because it has two triggers and doesn't harm any combo that can average up to .999 under all year with one trigger and no increase.

NHRA needs to adopt a system that treats all combo's fairly and stop using triggers to do a review. If they want .85 under to be the norm then they should average all combo's regardless of triggers.

The instant hp of 1.30 under runs seems to be fair but the percentage of hp needs some tweeking.

We need our reps to start a thread on class racer and get some input from the racers to see if the system can be implemented with more fairness.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
