To all you INTELLECTUALS (B Parker)

So you agree Billy. People are making more horsepower. I don't make the rules, Just live by them. My cast iron intake cast heads made more horsepower 5 years in a row. We may not all agree on the enhancements but them are the rules.

Every National Event should allow a minimum of 64 car field (no singles) and allow at least 70 entries. The quickest 64 cars qualify for the field. This will help fix the AHFS.

I remember when it was an honor to qualify for a National event. Lets bring back the performance aspect of stock and super stock to qualifying.

[Andys dad]

How about 80 entries at every national event - however only 64 qualify - should cut down on entries filling up at grade 8.

AHFS at a 1000' - no matter where you do it - guys will figure a way to maintain an unfair advantage just to try to qualify high.

It is about egos.

Yes, people are making more HP. But not as much proportionately as the people with a bucket load of "approved replacement parts". Now, let's get to my point and talk about your AFTERMARKET cast iron heads that are carrying 4 and 5 CCs more runner than the OEM head. More HP for 5 years in a row! So the shop doing your STUFF has been manipulating your heads a bit more every year.
Somewhere I saw somebody post "the squeaky wheel gets the grease". Who got "greased" to approve aftermarket heads to replace a 624 casting? Especially in Stock! They're not the least bit rare. They are pretty crack prone and hard to manipulate though.
Now the people who have been "blessed" with these "approved/Improved" parts make bigger HP gains than the "have-nots" and want the indexes moved. These same "blessed" people are complaining because they are "approved" to make more HP and yet they complain when the "rules/AHFS" try and GIVE them more HP.
Sorry Gary, if you don't want the AHFS to GIVE you more HP then please come up with a better and quicker way to make the AHFS GIVE BACK HP (HP welfare) to the have-nots.
It's stuff like this that just goes to prove that the playing field is no longer "level" in Stock.
