With the proposed AHFS, the blown cars basically get a free pass because there is no reason ever to go faster than a 9.61 but there isn't a carburetor car that can run that fast. We all know the blown cars can go much faster when and if needed.
Now, I put the weight in my car to run A/SA because there is no way I can run with a blown car. I can now go 9.90's so I now I must slow the car down just to make sure I do not hurt my combination. How can anyone say my car now needs hit with HP?
The AA index needs to be changed now.

Craig, a carb car has run that fast. But I agree on the index. A .75 would make a lot more sense. It's like a 200 lb. difference between A and AA for most of the higher rated cars. The difference is more like two-two and half tenths, not four.
