Indy AHFS Poll

B Parker · 06-13-2021, 06:06 PM

Another no name that wants to tell me how to run my car. Send me a check and I'll run it what ever way you want me to. Better yet you build one spend a bunch of money and hours working on it so an antiquated AHFS can render it a slower car when your already not the fastest in the class. How about they fix the system and bring it up to date.
Epping had some great air and there were several cars that could have gone faster than 1.20. A lot of 1000 foot racing again. Epping was about 2 tenth faster than Indy and no one went 1.20 under. Why does anyone think guys will go 1.20 under at Indy unless their combo is so soft the hit will not matter. BP

What’s the point of building a combo if you don’t have one big race to go air it out? At first I was bummed hearing it was in affect this year….With that said I guess I’m also for it as a few cars could use a HP wack. So how ever it plays out we will work with it

I would fair guess those with fast cars know their limitations. Well most do anyway. Some don't care about AHFS. Indy makes time for tear downs. Fast cars take good drivers to still hit the tree to avoid unwanted power added. Specially when class and heads up racing comes into play. Either way it makes for good racing in stock and superstock.
Both cars in the final of Epping found an extra 2 tenths when needed. AA/SA isn't the easiest class to run like they did. Hats off and Fun to watch!

At this time there are more stock and ss cars entered at the National event before and after Indy. Talked to a few people in Columbus this passed weekend and they felt the same way as me why was this done without getting the pulse of the guys that race Indy year after year.
