 Honey vs vinegar. It's strange to me how in this "performance" eliminator that often when someone goes fast, they get berated on this board. Which is it? To go fast or not to go fast? As a corollary, so many exclaim "performance!", yet find excuses to avoid any changes to class structures that might result in more heads-up runs.Best place to set a record? How about Bristol?  Then you can open it up a little more without feeling too guilty.

Re: Best place to set record
We used to get points for setting a record. ET record was same points as winning one round, MPH was half that. Didn't have these bogus soft indexes either. Made a bracket race out of it. About anything will run under these indexes if you have a clue at all. Don't have to be fast to go rounds any longer.

Re: Best place to set record
Well, if you want to be really impressive doing it, you can do it in August at Bowling Green, when the temperature is 95 degrees, the relative humidity is around 85%, and the barometer reads around 29.4".
