Say you lower it another .30 All you end up doing is lowering the index and the few cars that are within that .30 can't compete, but it does nothing towards addressing soft combo. Of course, I could be missing something so I am listening.

It?s been roughly 15 years since the last index and AHFS adjustment rule changes better accepted parts ,R&D have made anyone working on their stuff faster making easier to run .85 under and that?s all you have to avg to get HP along with 2 sec under triggers . If we leave the indexes or the .85 avg numbers the same we will keep putting weight in our cars . I?ll use the 255 that got instant HP on Monday as an example that combo has been race for 56 years did it really need that much power obviously he spent good money bought the best he could buy and was in great conditions and now everyone that has that combo that chose not to buy the best stuff and I totally understand that got their combo pretty much destroyed in one run. We also just watched a heads up final in stock at a track that?s not known for being fast if that race happens at Gainesville they are both probably getting Hp on Monday and not just 5 enough to move a class. At some point either the AHFS numbers need adjusted or adjust the indexes and leave the AHFS numbers the same . Like Andrew said in his post 91 stockers were a sec under at Indy not Gainesville . The last adjustment we took a .30 hit and the trigger went from 1.15 to 1.0 I do not recall what the avg was . This gave everyone a little cushion the guy on a budget wasn?t get hp from someone that?s buying the latest greatest stuff we are there again.
