NHRA hp updates
 

NHRA giveth and NHRA taketh away.

64-66 283 220hp stick super stock goes from 237hp to 230hp and now back to 237hp. I'm glad I didn't decide to change my wagon auto to a stick. Another example where they can't make up their mind

I wonder what happened? That’s strange

Re: NHRA hp updates
 

I was told that if a combo ever got hit with HP then it could never be reduced. They probably realized they made a mistake and corrected it.

You can't make this stuff up.....

When did AHCS start? In 2009 the 283 Chevy II autos got hit to 235 hp that put in SS/JA and made my car not legal for L and to heavy for K putting me out of racing. Then at some point it was dropped to to 233 the same as GT that made them SS/KA. The same with the stick cars that were hit to 241 then dropped to 237, anybody that races a Chevy II getting them lite enough to get to min weight is very tuff. For them to say you cant go back there memory is not good. How many racers will this put out of racing, just does not make much sense. . Tom

"The decision to adjust horsepower or to reduce the index will be at the discretion of the
NHRA Tech Department. "

This line from the AHFS rules is the key to all your questions. They can do anything
they want regardless of the guidelines .

Kevin, you are exactly right.. If they think you go too fast they will punish you no matter what their rules are. And they have to explain their actions to nobody.

Just complaining here. My combination got hit with 14 H.P. That's 77 pounds. SEVENTY SEVEN. I'm ready to park the car and walk away from Stock for good.

BTW, my quickest pass was 1.007 under. And that only happened once. So there's that.

Tony, Email Pat C and ask for an explanation. That’s what I did to find out I missed the cut off by .004.
