2008 Mid Year Stock, Super Stock Horsepower Adjustments Announced

art leong · 07-03-2008, 06:15 PM

I have one question? Is there anyone that can not run the index, due to the horsepower hit? You might lose an advantage in class, But these cars can still go fast enough to win an event.
This IS a performance based eliminator.
I think the AHFS is a good idea, BUT they should tear cars down for the automatic stuff. And they should altitude correct all runs, including altitude factored tracks.
I remember the "GOOD OLD DAYS" when the OUIJA (pronouned WE-GEE) BOARD or the DART BOARD were the main source of the fickle finger of factor.I remember engines getting horsepower when there were 2 or 3 faster combos in the same class. Just because they were'nt politically correct.
And I'm not being a crybaby because the combo we ran never got factored.
I think you will see more guys quitting because of sandbagging than the economy. What fun is it to run to 1000 ft and shut down or run 300 pounds heavy.
This is supossed to be racing not coordinated swimming
This is why I'll never go back to a horsepower oriented class. If my index gets hit everyone in the class has to work harder.
