Re: I Need Help With A Math Problem
and I'm pretty sure that a 383/330/281 in H/I/J WITH an available Edelbrock head could win any heads-up race that it got into.
and the same for a 426/365/300 in G/H/I WITH the same Edelbrock head available.

Re: I Need Help With A Math Problem
NHRA needs to realize that favoritism and special treatment outside the published rules will kill the Stock/ Super Stock sport. Everyone suffers from Elephant’s Memory.

You’re spot on Billy, and don’t forget the generous GIFTS the 302 Feeee Fords received. With one stroke of the pen Good Ole Captain Jack aged 10 years.

Re: I Need Help With A Math Problem
There’s a fix it clause, it’s the Hp reduction part in the AHFS. I got my pink car competitive staying with in the published rules. Like they told me that I needed to work on my car and I did. So how does NHRA fix all the racers that have lost to these combos that got reduced outside of the published rules. I know I lost a heads up finial at Indy to one of these special cars, and it still bothers me.

We NEED a, call it an "oops" clause or an "aww s#!t" clause or a "reset" clause to undo the HP give backs that some combos have already gotten!

Re: I Need Help With A Math Problem
But meanwhile back at the ranch, we ,all of us, are getting hosed by decisions made outside of the rules. I.E. Number 129 qualifier at Indy that did not make the elimination cut. The racer that should have advanced in elimination but got pounded by a gift car in a heads up race. NHRA go by your rules and fix the screw ups.
