It's the new unwritten cross over rule.

Let me see if I understand this. You take a brand new underrated "Stocker" and run it in Super Stock. Run only -.234 under ( according to the criteria this run should not even count) the index then write a letter to get the HP reduced and the powers that be go for it. Yeah, the system works. What a bunch of dupes NHRA has working for them! I think I get it now. Jim

Charlie, let there be no doubt you are my daily hero for exposing the NHRA corruption. I thank you for that. Can you go one step further and ask for a reduced tax rate while you're on this role? You got hot metal...Don't stop hitting it!

Ford is the official vehicle of NHRA, that's how you lower the horsepower. You guys on here care about stock and super stock racing but the NHRA suits care about money. If you want your horsepower lowered, try attaching a check next time you write them a letter.

How many cars and how many runs worth of data could they have already?

Those HP increases didn't do much to slow down the Mustangs. Cour's AA/SA car is sitting Number 1 right now at Woodburn.
