National Records Poll

The 8 records in Super Stock
Record vs Index
SS/CA 8.86 10.05 -- 1.21
SS/KA 10.49 11.25 -- .76
SS/BS 8.92 9.65 -- .73
SS/AM 8.00 9.00 -- 1.00
SS/CM 8.88 9.50 -- .62
SS/FM 9.86 10.50 -- .64
GT/QA 10.74 11.75 -- 1.01
SS/TB 8.94 9.90 -- .86

5 of the 8 fall in the AHFS averages
3 are quicker than 1.00
The numbers seem to show that
assuming the records will impact the AHFS is assuming alot.
Only 3 out of the 8had real impact on the AHFS.
These 8 may not be the fastest in each class, but they are the record setters. They put up a number that says "Go faster than this and you will be the record setter"
The list of "Things to do" by JRGrossi Jr. are (IMHO) good reccomendations, with the exception of the number of qualified in the field. In this day and age as expenses increase an all run field seems fair to me. "Qualified fields at all national events. Raise the quotas and qualify 32, 64, or 128" seems to be more "Elitist' rather than an incentive.
