Default Re: How do you get Hp and not go 1.20 under

While we are on screwed up index reductions that reminds me that everyone got several tenths taken off their indexes a few years ago because some illegal cars with worked on combustion chambers went fast, got tossed, and rules were changed to make them legal. Matter of fact, this had been being overlooked for a few years and a run in at teardown at Indy brought this to the conclusion. Sorry to bring this up again but just another case of the illegal cars that should have got suspended were made legal and legal cars ie: (combustion chamber modifications NOT permitted) got punished.

This in no way implies that any of the cars mentioned in this thread are or were illegal in any way. Just an example of index reductions. However....not weighing or fuel checking a heads up final?

At the NHRAracer website they say the 2012 got their 20hp back. AAA/SA index drops to 9.20.

OOPS! Repeat post. Sorry!

I am surprised that nobody has said why SS/AAA went from 9.40 to 9.20.

It is all explained in the AHFS rules. The whole class was fast so the index got hit instead of horsepower.

So, how long until we have SS/AA/A, SS/AAA, and SS/AAAA class designations?

So wait a minute. You got horsepower and index hit. So now your minimum weight is going to exceed that of your chassis spec. So what now?

Cary they took the horsepower hit off. Just hit the index.
What happens if they roll on the scales and they are over the chassis spec weight?
