ahfs question

[Ty Webb]

It should count for AHFS at alt. tracks based on alt. index. The factor is good enough for records, it should be good enough for HP. Competition Eliminator can get their indexes hit at altitude tracks based on alt. indexes, S/SS should also.

I agree 100%.
Besides everyone knows that a big block isn't affected nearly as much as the small block at altitude. Right?

Ty the comp cars don't get hit during qualifying.

It's sad that so many people know so little about the rules they race under.

Ty,

Do you know that if you run 1.25 under the altitude factored index for the record, that you don't get the record at 1.25 under? It's LESS than that, and it varies dependant on which altitude track you set it at and the correction factors applied when it's factored back to sea level. So then it really isn't a 1.25 under run, and shouldn't be the cause of a HP factor. But we have no clarification on that either!!

The fact that NHRA personel previously had to do a bunch of paperwork to figure this out at altitude tracks is the reason they just let altitude factored runs go until now.

Wait a minute. It seems that everyone is getting caught up in the emotional part of this discussion and speculation. The answer is right there in front of you. Strip away all of the B.S. and political nonsense and read the words.

The decision to adjust horsepower or to reduce the index will be at the discretion of the NHRA Tech Department


End of story. Everything else is secondary and irrelevant. Plead your case but in the end it's their decision.

That sentence alludes to an either/ or situation, not some arbitrary decision.
No wonder you're still a Private. Get back in line, soldier

Has anyone done a spreadsheet of this for the various tracks that could take the records list and autocalc it across ?

If its sounds like something that someone else would like to do/see but dosent know how, I know how to do the excel part I just need someone to check/verify a couple of the calcs as well as be 100% sure Im putting the right info into the sheet.

PM me if youd like it, personally Id like a list of all the records and what has to be run where to beat them on alt factors.....I like it all laid out in front of me....

Cheers

Anybody known the answer? Altitude tracks at national and division events, 1.25 under altitude index or 1.25 under sea level index ? AHFS Can somebody ask at the Winternational`s? Tried to call Bruce no answer. Tom
