AHFS info for INDY

[Bob Mulry]

This is from the NHRA Competition Web Page:

"Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals Super Stock and Stock Runs Excluded From Automatic Horsepower Factoring System


As a reminder, the Automatic Horsepower Factoring system will not be used during this year’s Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals. As a result, runs made by Super Stock and Stock competitors at any time during the event will not count towards class averages, nor will they be used to trigger index or horsepower adjustments.



The AFHS will remain in effect for all other NHRA Mello Yello Series national and Lucas Oil Series divisional events."


NHRA didn't address runs of 1.20 under, which is part of the AHFS system, and state if that portion of AHFS was also suspended.

Hi Bob, I think that this addresses it. But, I'm far from fluent in NHRA-speak.

Hi Billy,

That's why I posted this............

I don't speak NHRA either.....

But, on the other hand this follows a fine tradition, of the NHRA, of not specifying exactly what they mean......

Thanks,
Bob

Isn't that what this means? -

"...nor will they be used to trigger index or horsepower adjustments"

Sometimes what they say is exactly what they mean. There is no AHFS in effect for Stock or Super Stock, for any run, during the Indy Nationals. Let the chips fall where they may!

OK OK OK

I looked back at last year’s INDY and Jim Parsons #1 qualifying shot didn't get him a horsepower hit....

I guess that no means no....

I am suitably humbled...

Mulry,

I've known you for something on the order of thirty-five or forty years and at no time, under any imaginable circumstances would I characterize your status as "suitably humbled!" The sight of that statement over your signature only makes me wonder what chicanery is working its way through your consciousness this time? What's going on?

Highest regards,

c
