New NHRA Horsepower Hits!

HP increase's are twice a year like they have been doing for 40 plus years. Reductions are only once a year because it was to much for Pat Cvengros to handle. Funny They have no problem doing increase's twice a year but no time for two reductions a year.

That's because no one requests an increase in Hp but lots of us request reductions.

Reductions are once a year cause Larry only needs once a year. He has the formula: (X-Y+Z) .365 >23/6

[Larry Hill]

Jeff why did you chance the number to a fraction?

Looks like the trigger was caused by Alan Messer who drives a stick car. I spoke to Pat Cvengros a few minutes ago and the horsepower will be removed today.

I guess there were no changes in the Super Stock HP or were they simply to lazy to post them?

The way it was explained to me is that the engine gets triggered regardless of the transmission, (one run could be a stick and the other an auto) and then they look at the averages for both stick and auto and if either are more than .85 under, that engine/trans combo gets hp,

Not correct to my understanding. It is transmission dependent.
