Casey, I applaud your efforts for going to Indy. You are going there to have fun win, lose or draw. Sounds like a great Bucket List adventure. Good luck.

Racing in the US Nationals has been something I’ve wanted to do since I was a little kid, watching my relatives race. This is the first year that I thought I might make it (really close). Good luck to all that are close. This is what I spent my money for!!

James Perrone Indy 2014 you went 95 under and qualified # 87. Now 5 years later I'm sure you are a little faster. But even if you have been lazy and haven't worked on your car that 95 under will still get you in. Stop complaining and come to Indy. You know you want to. Great place for you to get a sun tan. I will be there with my brother. We will cook you a cheeseburger!!!! And teach you the English language. BP

Update - Sorry James my brother says no cheeseburger for you.

Barry you are a very smart and capable man. But really do not think even you can teach James the English language we use!

Can someone remind me why there is no AHFS at the biggest event of the year where it would be most warranted and actually do the job it is in place to do?

Because in their mind, lottsa racers want to justify the $100k plus they spent on a NHRA stocker. However they do not want the hp on their combo to reflect time and money spent. They want to show everybody how fast they are but they want 25 hp in the bank. Go figger.

I was trying to figure out how to reply to that question but this pretty much sums it up!

For it to really work wouldn't you have to use it at the most over entered event? Especially since there are already some kind "Mine shaft conditions" exemptions for air.

The vast majority of my friends that actually attend Indy are in favor of the AHFS being suspended for Indy. That includes myself and I compete in a class where cars routinely out perform mine by two tenths.

In my opinion there has to be a venue to let all the cars run to their potential, and what better place than "the big go". It's not only fun to participate and watch it also provides fuel for a great deal of discussion on this forum. Lol

This may be a great example of NHRA listening to what their customers who attend Indy want.
