Does NHRA think those that can't will just call up an engine builder and order a new 1000 HP motor for 15 to 25 grand just because NHRA and some people that didn't think this out said so. Nope won't happen they will go to IHRA or bracket race and the car counts will go down.
I am with Tom on this one. I too have a car that will run the 7.90 index but there are several that can not. My guess is about 25-30% can not. So take 25-30% of the field and figure out where they will go? Let say 0% will upgrade because if they had more money they would be going faster anyway. I would say they will go bracket racing or sell it.

I voted for the .50 to keep the fields the same. Anymore will remove people from it.

Just my opinion,

Brian
