Mike, you DO have a "dog in this fight". You didn't win class at Indy and went fast enough to qualify.
"A few smart Racers in the same class who can barely run the index will enter an event just so one of them can win class and get in the show". Really? Come on.

Maybe there's a few smart Racers out there right now that run the same class and only have one good motor between them so they swap motors between qualifying rounds.

What's wrong with there being more classes represented? Some classes ARE much more competitive than others and have much better combos in them than others.

Sorry pal, if you win class at Indy you have accomplished something. As long as you are beating another competitor you deserve to be in the field. And I agree that the combo classes should stay.

It is possible to use the AHFS to make a car more competitive, but like all things racing, it ain't easy or quick.

............and it'll never happen to the 396/375 or the 350/255.
Too many of them.

Such as moving under factored out of the same class. Part of that problem would be getting in and then running in bracket mode. Make them run off the index instead of dial and they won't know how far under their competitor can go. Should get the AHFS working.
