I haven't been able to find otherwise, the only announcement's I've found were from 2023, the 2023 changes (https://www.nhraracer.com/content/ge...699&zoneid=132) say exempt events and national opens don't count, but I do not see any list of exempt events for 2024, and no announcement for the US Nationals for 2024.

I found the anoucement for 2023 here (but have not found any announcement for 2024): https://nhraracer.com/content/genera...Hxq8MGLaTaWqwE

Hope fully someone can get clarification for this year.

From NHRA Racer dated July 2, 2024


NHRA U.S. Nationals Stock and Super Stock Runs Excluded From Automatic Horsepower Factoring System
NHRA has announced that the Automatic Horsepower Factoring system will not be used during this year?s NHRA U.S. Nationals. As a result, runs made by Stock and Super Stock competitors at any time during the event will not count towards class averages, nor will they be used to trigger index or horsepower adjustments.



This decision was reached as the result of competitor requests. During those discussions, a significant number of competitors expressed the desire to show the full performance potential of their cars during NHRA?s most prestigious event without fear of future horsepower and/or index penalties.



The AFHS will remain in effect for all other NHRA Mission Foods National, Lucas Oil Series divisional events, and JEGS SportsNationals.

I was the 3rd alternate last year and also the first car in the staging lanes that morning. It was kind of a mess but I stayed very close to the nhra people so I wouldn?t get passed over. The nhra people kept trying to get info from the tower but weren?t having much luck. Randi Lyn sort of took charge and got the first three alternates lined up.
I really appreciated that they allowed alternates to run even though I managed to red light first round.

Glad to see this but I just wish this was the rule for all class run offs. Class run offs have no bearing on points. Put the fun back into class racing.
