So looking at who doesn’t AHFS in effect are the folks that are stupid fast.
Definitely hard working money spending racers
Most of you could use a little HP. My opinion
So why bitch about it being in effect?
Chances are your gonna win CLASS
And this is why AHFS is needed
Indy is the only race to possible to get HP hits to even out the playing field.
I hope the AHFS stays in effect
No more mulligans. This ain’t golf.

Who's bitching? Not all of us are fast. Indy isn't the only place to get HP. I seem to remember Gainesville and Belle Rose come to mind that get hits fairly regularly.

James, I haven’t won class at Indy in forever. Probably never will. I just think that there should be one place left where we can all unload our stuff and let it rip. Mike McMahan 2543 H/SA

Last time I raced at Indy with AHFS I was awarded 29 HP in a 22 lbs. class that was adding 638 lbs to stay in the same class. Needless to say lead futures skyrocketed, but that's what I wanted to do.

It's still a good combo at 184 hp

Was that the Cowboy Cadillac pickup? Still deadly

I still am certain the mineshaft will be in effect because the bump is usually about -.85

The mineshaft rule doesn’t help when a racer goes 1.20 under ......

James give your car to the Masshole. He seems to go real fast in the same combo. BP

The Sportsnationals runs class in similar air as Indy. Cars from all regions show up to run that event. Did you notice all these horse power hits your hoping to find? No, because people, at least most people, are not willing to kill their combo's on purpose. In the final of my class at the Sports, I ask my opponent what was the game plan. His exact quote was "I'm not going to kill my combo, I'll tell ya that" . I said ok, "I'll set up for a second under". There are deals being made to lift at the 1000, I've even been involved on both participants running max weight, with the same restrictor plates and meeting at the scales to monitor each other before heading up to the staging area. Instead of having the pop...sizzle.. and excitement of watching that scoreboard light up and think "what the keck, how's he run that fast !!" You want to turn it into just another event, a boring one....Let Indy be something BIG, have a reason to call it the BIG GO.

It was the Cowboy Cadillac in V/S. We worked so hard on everything that would make it run fast.
