My crystal ball also said:
ALL future records will be exactly .99 under the index......

Good point Bob, exactly what I was thinking. If you look at most records, you will have to go faster than this to even set one. Which will get you looked at and possible hp. Bad idea all the way around.

WOW
I had no idea so many guys can run more than a second under I ran real fast at Pomona and was only 95 under - that use to be 125 under Now I am learning most people are out of line more than I thought Otherwise why all of the hub bub Just how many heads up races have been won by the new cars anyway? How many heads up races have been won by you guys holding so much in reserve? The count is probably way in favor of the old cars since there are so many more. :-) peace

Let's cut the new car/ old car crap. This is nothing more than a factoring problem. I also have a new Cobra Jet and I can tell you it makes well over 100 horsepower more than my L-88. The Corvette is factored at 440 and the Cobra Jet is factored at 439 and the valve covers have never been off.
The Corvette has been 9.74 so it's no turd. This is the problem and you must remember that your new car today will be old tomorrow so think about that. |

-- How many heads ups have been won by the new cars? I take that to mean the dps and fords.......wayyyy to many seeing that these cars haven't had the time to do the 10 year thrash for that last little bit of et. --How many heads ups have been won by the guys holding so much in reserve? Enough to get hp on combos (under the ahfs) that in a perfect world (ie: first to the finish line and legal to the rule book) shouldn't have been given out. Exactly right Craig factoring is the whole problem not the new or old cars. It has been a problem for years and apparantly we are content to let sanctioning bodies dictate our expenditures and our budgets with a pencil, poor tech and protected factors.

Now wait just a minute according to Mike from the SRAC this was made of coutless hours and TONS of input from us the Racers I still would like a answer as to where all this INPUT CAME FROM......? Mike, Im not making this a personal attact trust me I just would like some answers, I have nothing against you, I just feel that posting this premature would do exactly what it has, What good does it do for us because we NEVER had a say in the old AHFS
Are you saying that this being up for dicussion before its finalized is actually going to make a difference ??? Please explain
