Hi Rick, I think the 67-68 Nova was Bob Gullet. On the Corvette, I don't
know.

It was. Funny thing is I'm the only one who runs a 67-68 Nova 327 with a stick. Always thought there would be more. My average was .869 with 3 triggers. I was under until my last run of the year! lol

BOB ,seems like you get hit more than anyone else, the price you pay for having a damn fast car i guess. Gary I feel your pain ,Like Tom Reese at St Louis going 121 under now you can go 129.9 no problem . Oh well . Rick .

Kind of goes back to my other post on the way the AHFS averages with lots of cars to lower it. I know of lots of cars who ran a lot more second under runs than me. Did they get power? No. Very flawed system. But it is what it is.

I see your point , much easier to keep the average down with a combo that alot of people run . Not as bad as yours but with only 2 cars like mine I sure have to watch it myself. Must be a better way but I sure dont know how. Rick

Also don’t think class eliminations shouldn’t count towards the average. Takes the fun out of going fast.
