Did the new rules effect anyone

This remains the same. The difference this year is if you have a trigger run of -1.200-1.249 you would get 3.25% hp and if you have a trigger of -1.250-1.299 you would receive 4.25%. So a 4.25% end of the year hit would be a very exteme hit. Keep in mind this could be the result of one run in -1500 feet or air. A combination rated at 400hp for example would receive 18hp at year end with one trigger of -1.250-1.299.

Ok thank you. Im in no danger to go 1.0 under. But I know there’s guys with my combination that can. So I’ve been watching this. In the event I can get back out there this year. Maybe my slow car will help with the average. Im hopping drag insights or nitro Joe starts tracking this. So it’s easier to keep track of where a combos average is as the year goes on.

Nothing like an over complicated system to lure new racers into the category. At a time when new blood is needed, let's make it more difficult.
