ED...it is too bad you don't run one of the 396/375 combos, if you did then the average would be way down, they need more dumb asses like you with this combo who would never be able to run fast to keep from getting hit.......

Mark,
Thats what I mean, we all get it, not just a car in A.
Hell, I hope they give it 25.....

Mark Faul · 06-10-2008, 12:04 PM

Jim, 25??? Would you go fishing then, or what?

Jim Cimarolli · 06-10-2008, 12:22 PM

Mark,
I'm going fishing if they give us 5. This stupid system needs to be taken out.
I do see your point though, and Sean's, and I'm glad you brought it up like you did so we can all see what can be done to dodge the hit. We have to get the average down in A, or we are all going to get it.

Thanks,

NHRA's example is misleading. First, NHRA looks at all runs (not class) and body styles with the same motor to determine the average. If not above 1.00 then the look at the only the body style.

Westly detailed this to me when we got hit in Dec 07 with only two national events above 1.15 by someone with a different body style.

I'm just curious...you set up this plan, everybody agree's and somebody's ego get's in the way.Will there be a lynching (with all do respect to the Lynches that happen to run this combo)?
Maybe the AHFS can spin off into a business venture. You guys could band together and pay somebody to build a slug. That or you can all get new brake pads before the next race.
