Year End Horsepower Adjustments...

Jeff Teuton · 12-21-2012, 02:23 PM

For all you LS1 guys, according to my master computer revived from the Myan temple in Mexico, it will never get hp based on the average. Too many of yall. The 1.20 deal is something else however. I guess yall are the 'not so old' cars. Lots of them people mad at yall too. Them people.

Maybe some of you long time class racers, or guys that understand the AHFS better can clarify something for me.

I went faster 1.00 under but slower than 1.20 under a total of 2 times last season, same event, different days.

I guess my question is, why would my index be lowered .1 because of this?

BTW, my average runs were way slower than 1.00 under.

Carey, your two -1.00 under runs raised the red flag. All you need is a class average of -.85 to get HP or index change. Jim

Carey, it depends what runs you did it on. For the AHFS only your quickest qualifying run counts and ALL elimination runs count towards your average. Class elimination runs that are not qualifying runs are used for "data only" whatever that means. So your overall (class) average for that review period had to be more than .85 under your index.

Thank you for the clarification, but I guess I'm still confused why it got hit then?

Below are all of my runs at NHRA events in the 2012 season. I only went to 3.

SS/DX index - 9.05

***Indy Division Race***

Q1 - 9.453 - .403 over (broke, done for event)

***Joilet Division Race***

Q1 - Skipped
Q2 - 9.124 - .074 over
Q3 - 9.058 - .008 over
E1 - 8.134 - .916 under

***US Nationals***

Q1 - 8.363 - .687 under
Q2 - 8.228 - .822 under
Q3 - 8.005 - 1.045 under
Q4 - 8.38 - .670 under
C1 - 17.387 - 8.337 over
Q5 - 8.134 - .916 under
E1 - 7.923 - 1.127 under
E2 - 8.643 - .407 under

I believe your counted average works out to be .87375 under. Doing this on my phone so I may have goofed.

That would explain it.

Runs slower than -.35 under do not count for the average. Quickest run in qualifying and all runs in eliminations count. If you are the only one in your class, you control your own destiny. Going by your posted ET's your average is -.87375 as has already been stated on here. That is quicker than the -.85 it takes to give you an index hit. At least you can say you are the quickest in your class.

E1 - 7.923 - 1.127 under
E2 - 8.643 - .407 under

Only the quickest Q run counts All E runs count You have to go .35 or better under to count any run
So in their books it's

***Joilet Division Race***
E1 - 8.134 - .916 under

***US Nationals***
Q3 - 8.005 - 1.045 under
E1 - 7.923 - 1.127 under
E2 - 8.643 - .407 under[/QUOTE]
Your average is .873 under Your fastest trigger is 1.127 So you get a tenth.
