I have no idea if he's in the correct class or not, but it's the driver's responsibility to make sure they are in the correct class. If you are not sure, ask. They are more than happy to help you look it up.

Imagine how long tech would take if they had to look up everyone's car in the guide. Especially at Indy.

Is Brian Oakes car a natural "B" car? Unless his combo is natural "A", he shouldn't have been allowed to tech in Double A.

And if he didn't subtract weight and was at legal SSA/A weight, he should've been disqualified as he was over the Double A max weight...

I don't know what happened down there but Brett C got me thinking after his reference to not being able to dial above the index. And I am fairly certain he didn't mean to enter SS/AA!

My guess is that it is supposed to be SS A/A...that would make sense.

SS/AA in the past was exactly how it looks SS/A Automatic. So if it were a mistake, I can see how this was made. I would have made the same mistake. Yes, its the drivers responsibility to know the class they are supposed to be entering but the class designation was changed by NHRA (From SS/AA to SSA/A) with the addition of the 27 new classes for the new cars.
