No, I got out in 2007, tired of the crap (raced from 2000 to 2006). And yes, I know what's going on.

In regards to what? If you race, you should know. You seem obsessed with scales, getting tangled up, and Santa Claus based on most of your posts anymore.

It Would Be Easy To Just Lower The Index On FS Cars By Four. Then Qualifing Would Be Closer For The Older Cars. Becuase The Same FS Car In Normal Stock Run's AA Or BB. So At A Normal Race That Same FS Car Would Not Be Hurt With HP. Think About It!!!!

Some of the FS cars are running 1.5 to almost 1.6 Under.
But you do have a point Sammy.

Angry Re: FS cars exempt from HP?

This debate will go on until the bitter end. The part that is the saddest is NHRA and others think these new cars are bringing new interest and spectators to this sport. However I watched the final in car and looked into the stands and, you guessed it nobody there. No disrespect to the Bartons, great job. Just an observation.

I also have an observation. When I go to the U.S. Nationals on a Thursday and see a full (five man) PR team from Chevrolet Performance, and media/PR members from Dodge and Ford, I know something must be working. I'm not suggesting the program is anything close to perfect but the media room at Indy used to be a ghost town on Thursday. Now, it's quite active and virtually all of that is due to the Factory Stock Showdown.

How about lowering the classes by 2 on each old car, hence 3 tenths easier. That is what Larry Hill is doing while everyone on here is blapping their gums.
