AI?s answer to the AHFS

I wish NHRA would simply leave the -1.30 penalty in effect everywhere with a 5 HP penalty

Leaving the -1.30 penalty with a 5 hp hit won't work at all but I'm pretty sure that depending on the program, AI would probably figure that out on it's own.

-1.30 and a 5 hp hit has a far different affect on a 500 hp Hemi than it does on a 100 hp Pinto.

Just change the "hp" to "%" and you would be pretty much where it is today at a 5.25% change. I know it is in context of doing smaller changes, but I am not understanding how it accomplishes anything if they are going to keep an AHFS system in place.

He is just telling it like it is.

Am personally looking for property in the Northwest myself to build a smaller downsized home on, mid to high 16's all trip long in the middle of Summer to boot at at least 2 tracks so far, with 1 more to race at this weekend at Bremerton before the Kent Double. And not a single pass yet anywhere close to above the vacant Nat. Rec. for EF/S.

The car loves these 2 near sea level tracks. 2 Sportsman Wins, 1 Semi (3 car), and 2 transfers to Pro at Woodburn by earning Last Sportsman Standing Fri/Sun (both 5 car quarters finishes 1 -.018 red, one really tight finish loss .026 to .027 (Sunday was cold dialed/no T.T. and never raced the car before in 54 degree, 65 percent humidity but 523' corrected DA...it was on a second under pass no doubt in my mind.

Nothing but absolutely perfect racing weather so far this whole trip. Great facilities and great people!

Solution to AHFS...make them race at Woodburn and their 1,000' drops will need to be 800' drops.
