Number 1 qualifier at Gainesville Factory Showdown went 8.101 which is -1.799 under the 9.90 index. According to AHFS:

1.750- 1.799 14.25% -.70 (immediate change)

Index should be 9.20 now, right? Don't get me wrong I love the class but just want fair treatment for the old iron when it comes to non-qualified showdown cars. I think NHRA is doing better promoting these cars than most are giving them credit for. They get all their eliminations on TV which is a great start. They are guaranteed entry at all FS events. You can't expect the sanctioning body to throw out current Pro Stock and make this the new Pro Stock in one short year. Also, if/when it does become the new Pro Stock, what happens when Summit boys, Elite Performance, Gray Family etc. come on board with unlimited budgets?

Why change the index? They get no penalties anyway
You enter a Big Boy class With Big Boy car .
Car$ and co$t way out there already
Can't make the field GO HOME
Why the mulligan I mean reward you get to be #1 and first chance at bye run
I mean you get a Wally for 3 round race FSXX. And the ca$h!
That's Special enough
16 car fields make sense
Big Boy cars Big Boy rules. Big Boy risk.
By the way I just love racing against Mini pro Stock cars. NOT!
