New Horse Power Ratings

Kevin, I looked it up SS/L, he only made one run that counted on the AFHS -.234.Tom

Let me see if I understand this. You take a brand new underrated "Stocker" and run it in Super Stock. Run only -.234 under ( according to the criteria this run should not even count) the index then write a letter to get the HP reduced and the powers that be go for it. Yeah, the system works. What a bunch of dupes NHRA has working for them! I think I get it now. Jim

Ford is the official vehicle of NHRA, that's how you lower the horsepower. You guys on here care about stock and super stock racing but the NHRA suits care about money. If you want your horsepower lowered, try attaching a check next time you write them a letter.

How many cars and how many runs worth of data could they have already?

Those HP increases didn't do much to slow down the Mustangs. Cour's AA/SA car is sitting Number 1 right now at Woodburn.
