Changing the indexes worked

[Michael Beard]

Exactly the point... I think there are too many racers who think, "Oh, it's fine if they lower the indexes by (insert number .10 slower than what that racer can run in bad conditions), but no more than that!" Interestingly, there's a large contingent who bellow that "S/SS are PERFORMANCE classes!", yet many of those cry foul whenever anything is suggested that would result in more heads-up racing. Amazing.

And to the original post of this thread... doesn't that just show the combinations that have been underfactored all this time? I've said it a million times: factor everything reasonably once, and then you don't HAVE to have HP factoring/triggers, etc. for years! If these combinations were factored correctly in the first place, they could run all out without fear of getting more HP. Regardless, today's result could've been accomplished simply by moving the trigger .15 without touching the indexes.
