I vote for having AHFS at divisionals! Len, I'm sure you'll get a lot more support for this than you think!!

Tony Janes · 11-27-2007, 05:29 PM

I vote no for AHFS at divisional

Bruce Noland · 11-27-2007, 05:53 PM

Len, a well known engine builder says you that you told him you were going to post the 1.15 under at opens and divisionals information this week except Wesley told a few people and now you are accepting emails about the subject. True or false?

The AHFS is full of changes that were never given advance notice or publication and with a record like that you have the nerve to come out here and run me down for misguided assumptions. You better wipe that fog from the mirror.

Sounds like you aren't too happy about us getting the word out.

Len Imbrogno · 11-27-2007, 06:02 PM

False.

Any possible changes that could or would happen to the AHFS will be put up on the NHRA website, for review by all racers, before a final decision is made to implement any such changes.

Bruce Noland · 11-27-2007, 06:17 PM

Len,

You say you never told an engine builder that you were going to make the -1.15 change??? So why are you now accepting emails on a subject that the majority of the racers are not in favor of? Why bring the subject up after it had already been decided by the racers???? Your words.

And please tell me how we got all those changes in the AHFS when nobody else on the planet has seen them published in advance on any nhra site?

Dusty, did you say something about soft combinations? I believe you ran -1.40 this year in Jr. Stock. And that by the way is where most of the fast cars will go at Opens if these guys pull this off.

Bryan

Could you please explain why you feel this way??

DustyLowell · 11-27-2007, 06:42 PM

I would have to say, NO to 1.15.

Bryan
The way the AHFS would work at Div races is: If you are in the top 10 on the qualifing sheet and are -1.15 you get dinged, (if you are #11 and -1.20 I guess it doen't matter?)the same as -1.15 at a National. Why in the hell would a guy like you with one of the softer combo's vote for that?

All runs should count. divisionals,nationals,class records,class runoffs, whatever. Thats the only way to determine what the combinations are capable of. It is a performanced based class afterall. I would like to see it go back to running off the record with no breakout and no shoe polish but with all the bracket racers involved now it will never happen.
