Re: how far under in stock at Indy to qualify
my guess, .911 under and there will be 45 "new" FS cars making up stock eliminator.

Re: how far under in stock at Indy to qualify
Lately, there seems to be some "renewed" enforcement by the NHRA Tech Dept.... Which is a good thing.... Look for the barn to become a center of activity at INDY. With that being said, after this years teardowns, the bump will be lower than the past couple years. My guess, look for something around .885 under.

Re: how far under in stock at Indy to qualify
I will go with - .905
Jim, I think those that go to Indy are ready for teardown. I hope there are more teardowns in NHRA, but don't think it will change much at Indy

Re: how far under in stock at Indy to qualify
I’ll guess that the first alternate that gets in will be .882 under.
So that’s number 129 qualifier.

Re: how far under in stock at Indy to qualify
Hopefully Mr Teuton chips in, otherwise this thread will be unnatural...and best I recall he always gets pretty close. In any case I think Terry is pretty close but do think the FS qualifiers will number closer to 50. I’m still ‘ciphering’ on the Super Stock number, probably more AH cars will get in against a 9.60 index.

Re: how far under in stock at Indy to qualify
I am going to go with .900, but I have been wrong before.
