The mines are now closed (AHFS)
https://www.nhraracer.com/content/ge...657&zoneid=132
NHRA announces Automatic Horsepower Factor System (AHFS) Changes for 2023 In an effort to bring Stock and Super Stock back to its grass roots of being performance-based eliminators, and lengthy discussions with Racers, the SRAC, the Stock/Super Stock Rules Committee and the Rules Review Panel; NHRA has made the following changes to the Automatic Horsepower Factoring system (AHFS) for 2023. · All runs count for end of year average · No automatic adjustments · No mineshaft And it appears the -1.20 or quicker isn't immediate anymore.

Re: The mines are now closed (AHFS)
I think this was a bad idea. But we'll see how it plays out. I think many more 1000' runs. Overall I think it hurts the classes

Re: The mines are now closed (AHFS)
I wonder if “All” really means all. Mathematically you could add back to your average if it was really “All.”
I expect an edit. |

Re: The mines are now closed (AHFS)
All runs count even test and tune......really, a performance based eliminator? 1/8 mile et count? Who wants to go fast or set a record? A whole lotta brake pads being used next year !!!!!

Re: The mines are now closed (AHFS)
Does this mean that runs of -1.20 won't be torn down anymore?

Re: The mines are now closed (AHFS)
For as many years as this has been discussed, I find the timing very
interesting. Anybody else? J.R. |
