Indy Quota - Page 5

So James and Cooter Lets say you get your cars flying and all the stars line up right for you at Indy. On blow up mode you can go 1:21 under for class win. And if the AHFS is in place are you really going to do it just for a class trophy. Really, not me and not very many others. Lets take a look at the 2015 COPO"s that run A/SA and B/SA. These cars in decent air can go 1:40 plus under. If the system works why haven't they got hit at the other 21 National Events. You think anyone would want to ruin their combo for a class trophy and a trip to the barn. BP

I've spent a ton of money this year Mr Parker and I'm pretty sure I can't get to 1.20 under at Indy in August but if someone is running that fast in those conditions, some with ease I say they need HP. Just like the new cars running in the regular classes this is probably the only race that would help get those cars the hp they need if they want the trophy bad enough.
To answer your question though, with apologies to everyone running my combo, yes I would if that's what it took to win class at Indy I would.

Technically not COPOs ,but we know the story on most of them.
NHRA wants new cars..Simple as that. They were supposed to go in as natural B cars, but the fine folks at No Hot Rods Allowed graciously put them in C.

Fortunately, there are several of them now, and they'll get theirs at other venues.

Barry they don’t run class enough and with 55 car fields there not enough competition.
Now if you ran CLASS at divisionals..you would see AHFS work..
The Baby Gator was great. And I don’t want to here about I ain’t going for class cause there’s no money $$$.
Now Barry when I met you all you wanted to do was be the fastest in your class Now with you decided to stay in control of your combo. Sissy boy.
Indy is a lot of fun but with no hamburger for me ..that’s it I ain’t going

Barry
If i go, do i get a burger ?

HR9121 · 07-26-2019, 02:31 PM

I have yet to be invited for a hamburger!

B Parker · 07-26-2019, 03:31 PM

To both James and Pete I will gladly give you a hamburger today if you would pay for it tomorrow. How many are old enough to remember that one. I'm going to try to make Atco are either one of you going? BP

Thank you I waa starting to feel left out! Doesn't look like I will make Atco since my motor is still sitting on the dyno trying to figure how to make the stars line up to make it fast enough for Indy! Hopefully I will make it to Cecil County, would be ashame not to make it back there to defend my win there last year.
