How the he'll does lowering everyone's index a tenth fix anything?
So if you are a fast car that can run -1.30 and you lose a tenth then you are -1.20
Yet a typical -.80 good car is now a -.70 good car and the bump at Indy goes from -.85 to -.75 and number one is -1.20 or so. Maybe it eliminates mineshaft conditions being early and late in the season but it doesn't fix a fast combo being fast it only hurts the slower guys

Rich I totally disagree with you all except about the slower cars. Your car is a good combo. In good air it should be able to run 1.20 under or more. If a typical car runs -.85 under and now they run .75 under it doesn't make any difference to them everybody in their class also got the same index change. But for the faster car it gives them some breathing room for the instant 1.20 hit. Several cars at the Atco open went 1.20 and faster. There were several more that could have also including mine. What if that was a Divisional and there were a few heads up with those cars. I would hate to see cars that on kill in good air that are just at that 1.20 point end up getting HP when others in their class are already faster than them. BP
