Guess if they want to know how fast it will run with no penalty, that's one way to do it. Ain't right, but that's how some play the game.

Some just use the wrong rockers.

Just kidding Jeff!!

Wow, Roy Johnson just ran 10.630 (-1.220) for the #2 spot! That's right behind Eric Merryfield who went 10.586 (-1.264) in the first round...

That's another thing that a lot of people who claim the AHFS will fix the problems quickly do not get. When you aren't dealing with a HP factor in the 400HP zone, 3.25% doesn't add a lot. It's 13HP on a 400HP combination, 12HP on a 350HP combination, and 10HP on a 300HP combination, if NHRA rounds the HP up, not a big deal if the combination is say 30-40HP light to begin with.

I'm building one in my shop right now with a 6.1 ,and when I first saw the engine spec sheet ,I thought the 5.7 HP was a misprint! ......90 less HP than a 6.1 with the only real difference being 24 cubic inches. ........It'll take a while but I'll bet the HP ends up near 375. .........Tom

It was a legal run, my bad

Bryan Worner · 06-18-2010, 01:25 PM

If he was light on the scales, he would show as a dq on the qualifying sheet! It must be a legal run since he's shown at the top. Unless a revised q1 comes out, he was good with weight.
