I didn't say that I liked the idea. But if ya think about it, lowering the indexes and doing away with the AHFS would have the same effect.

Who said they wanted to lower the indexes AND do away with the AHFS? The poll question was for lowering the indexes only.

And the majority of the replies wanted the AHFS triggers changed to a point where it didn't affect anybody IF the indexes were changed.

It wasn't. 02-.03 it was .200-.300 (2 or 3 tenths, not hundredths).

The class racers of today haven?t got a clue of what they?re racing for, other than money (which kinda sucks.). They want concessions that won?t allow for heads-ups so they can just shoe polish race. Well, this is class racing. If you want the shoe polish nationals, go back to Saturday and Sunday brackets. I know this is bracket racing, until another car with the same letter on the side window is in the other lane.

We can either lower indexes, so the peeps that ACTUALLY work on their junk can see what they have done over the winter, or make the breaks one pound, so we can get better chances at heads-ups, which is actually what these two categories were made for.

How about combine Sticks & Autos, 1 lb. weight breaks and the index reduction?

Way to go Sean and Billy
That puts the Performance back in what some call preformance based classes.
I remember how it used to be. I remember running locally against the guy that had a soft combination and held a record or two.. Seems like a lot of us always came back for more..
