AHFS at Indy?

[Nick Heath]

I still stand by what I said when I was at Indy last, 2 years ago:

I wish there was a good solution to the AHFS problem because I understand the arguments against turning it off. But there's something to be said when Indy consists of 300 of the baddest S/SS cars in the country - and every one of them has the loud pedal welded to the floor.

To play devil's advocate, isn't it even more boring when every race is a battle to see who can get closest to -0.999 under the index?

This time of year, is always fun reading about S/SS indexes and AHFS. How to fix it? what is right, etc. AHFS was made to create a level playing field, which cannot be achieved when most engines are not even legal. Before you start with the BS "I am legal, I just work harder" My cars run -.50 to-.70 under. I know what it takes to go -1.00, I choose not to spend the $. My choice, no complaints.

Complaining sounds ridiculous.

How was this decision made?

Is this what it's become? Has The AfHS seized control of Class Racing's soul?

Just maybe NHRA is trying to level out the field , the soul has been out of control for years now with those that are willing to spend endless amounts of money to push the rules way beyond the legal limits . I guess it's what one thinks about how seizing control of class racing ,will it help class racing to continue or die because of cost

[Cotten]

Well, I guess that's one way to cut down on the " no chillers in the staging lanes " problem.

Yes, and also Junior Dragturds in an adult show have no buisness being there too.

[Frank Castros]

In my very humble opinion the AHFS should not apply for the following;

Heads up runs during the eliminator at all races.
Class eliminations at races on the Super Stock/Stock Class Racing Schedule
National Opens.
Never at the U.S. Nationals!

Also, adjust the damned Indexes by .20!
