End of the year HP averages

Has NHRA posted the end of the year averages used to calculate the new Horsepower adjustment? If so where can I find it?
Thanks
Jim

No, Pat C. Was WAY too busy processing the WELFARE requests for removing HP.....At least in this great country, you can only receive welfare for 24 months during a five year period. ......I will apologize to the HARD working racers that have an unfavorable combo and really needed the assistance.......As for the others, the E MAIL racers that CONSTANTLY manipulate the system ....Congrats on your early XMAS gift....

Hmmm... saw they took a little off one of our cars (Corvette), maybe now put the other engine in and see if the poor thing can go a bit faster. We will have to keep working on the Camaro in SS....

Let's see here. Already a 1.40 under combo in T/SA. Now maybe -1.45 ?

Chev 283 220 217 214 65-66 Impala

Great job of working the system by somebody.

My question is whether a 283 Chevy can now be called a "bogus combo" ?

Yes, these same racers will be at the top of the sheet walking around the pits with their chest stuck out as IF they really accomplished this through hard work. .....what a bunch of chicken **** ..........MJ QUINN.....

It can if it has the "right" intake!

MJ talk about welfare
What about your combo Get hit 120 under at Englishtown 2016
But change front bumper and get the 120 lbs off
Welfare comes in all different forms But that was ok.

In Nitro Joe's 2018 stats I don't see a 1966 Nova 275 hp stick ever run a second under to get flagged.
An automatic car was flagged. I guess they considered the average of sticks and automatics combined.

Bob, I checked in the guide and it was only the auto that got hp.
