Default Re: Automatic Horsepower Factoring System

Currently looking in a dragster from 86(cajun souvenir iisue) the indexes were almost a tenth lower back then,they lowered them another .1 a couple years later(+.1 extra for A) the National Records were about .7-.8 higher then...we can bitch forever about the parts and pieces... legal or not...but here we are..and the thing is we cant keep adding HP/weight when cars get faster like the system works now...there should be some room for cars to get faster...or we will need AAA and AAAA in the future...

First the indexes can be lowered to make up for all the upgrades. Example start with .5. This still leaves room for credible early racers to race.
There are too many motors currently possible to run to attack this one at a time. I think using punishment for running fast is a killer on Class racing and this Kills interest in our S and SS racing.
One motor could be used as a gauge of hp. Use it and its performance to factor others but there would need to be a decrease in minor variations. There are TOO many 350 Chevy motors to use. Someone always finds another unfairly factored motor to run. I think limiting the combinations would be a good start.
There are too many Classes which allow people to hide a bogus combination also. Limit the numbers of class breaks and consolidate too...
