Percent of HP factor

Detroit Bob · 11-26-2014, 12:53 PM

One time Evan Smith had a percent figure above the NHRA HP factor to be able to run 1 under the index. Does anybody remember that number?

Just my observations for what they are worth:

Stock 1.5 to 1.6 times factored horsepower on commonly used
established combos] that we run.

Superstock 2.0 to 2.1 times factored horsepower on similar combos

If you find soft combos and obscure ones......... possibly a lot less.
Most of our mopar stuff has been factored quite a bit over the years.

These are my opinions....your experiences my vary.
