Kent,

I have a question. How can they not refactor altitude runs back to sea level for a horsepower adjustment but then do it for the record?

At a track like Denver you're talking about almost a full tenth difference in some cases. That's an absolute load of BS.
In my ss/na car my Denver index is a 13.10 from a 12.15 sea level index. If I run an 11.89 at Denver you're saying I'd automatically get factored because I'm 1.21 under. But, that only corrects back to an 11.019. That's only 1.121 under not even close to the automatic hit. I'm sorry. That's complete garbage.

Where else in the country is anyone else going to get factored for going 1.12 under the sea level index? The answer, their not! If their going to base hp off the index then I guess you should get the record off the index as well. If not they need to be refactored back to sea level the way the should be.
