They are asking for racer input about the changes.

Dusty/ Bruce,

I see they aren't going to touch the factored tracks at all during National events..So they can set records and run as far under as they want with no-HP...Yep that sure seems fair... Why can't they correct this problem ???? Dave...1033/stock

Anybody else think the higher number of runs versus a lower threshold for HP is plain old stupid?

The oddball combos will never get HP and the most common ones(Chevy) will get hammered. Lynn McCarty must have came up with that load of crap!

If you have this new system figured out please post some examples on how it works for us stupid people? Thank You.

I am not claiming I got it figured out, but here is my understanding of the sliding thresh hold.

Racer #1 GT/CA 350 295/322 chevy combo ( A very common combo)

Racer #2 GT/CA 400 Pontiac ( A very rare combo)

These two guys duke it out at both the US nats and Sports nats at Columbus. Both racers go -1.150 under in the class finals at both races. Thus triggering a review under the "new" AHFS.

Since racer #1 combo is very common and there are several runs in the database, say 25, if this combo average is only -.800 under then it would get HP on the sliding scale AHFS.

While Racer #2 with a rare combo and less than 5 runs in the database has to be -1.00 under to get HP! Racer #2 could go to a third race and slow down his car to qualify at only -.69 under to lower his average to below the -1.00 threshold.

In my opinion it should be the exact opposite of what is proposed. Low # of runs in Database should have a lower threshold to recieve HP compared to High # of runs in the database should be a higher threshold to recieve HP.
