otherwise I agree

I meant get rid of the 1000' clocks. This way the racers would have to run it out the back door more. You can not factor cars using the 1000' data My car would be a prefect example why not. Tim Kish runs the same class and we run close in ET's but our 1000' numbers are over a tenth different.
And maybe move the instant hit to 1.15 as long as it was altitude corrected and the car was proven legal.

not saying they need to factor off of 1000' data, but if racer x runs a 9.95 @600' altitude with a 7.95 1000' in A/SA, but later runs a 10.50 @800'DA but with a 7.88 1000' then you KNOW that they are sandbagging.

and you'll never get rid of the 1000' clocks as long as NHRA uses them for the fuel cars

But if you turn off the clocks the racer can't gain any info from that run

sure he can, he'll just have to resort to other means (data logger).

That wouldn't be as effective as the 1000' clocks

Make the instant hit at 1.00 under.

As long as it was altitude corrected and car was torn down that would work.
