Default Slow Averages?

http://www.nhra.net/2017/images/Race...ages%20Web.pdf

I think this is interesting. I can look at the runs by cars in my class or a class I want to run. I don't remember seeing this before. Is this just "slow runs", or all runs made this year? I hope NHRA updates this at the end of the year with all the runs.

Are you thinking about jumping back into the pool?

I never got completely out of the pool, but had to get out of the deep end. I'm letting the small fish eat the dead skin off my feet. That's about the extent of my budget at this point. Looking at buying or building a flow bench since that process seemed to consume a lot of money and not provide a lot of data for the time spent. It does show that the guys that do heads earn their money since they invested a lot of time figuring out a particular head. Well, back to the kiddie pool.

Are those from one race, one division, or all over the country? I like that listing but confused a little about what class certain cars are in. I didn't see any car like what I'm building, maybe I'm going in the wrong direction. Mike

"NHRA Releases Stock / Super Stock Slow Averages through Houston"

This is all I've seen to tell us what runs are included. It appears to be all the runs in Stock and SS through the Houston race for this year.

As for Bob's question, it could be the "median average". They added the word "slow" in there, so that raises more questions.

The averages I keep up with appear to be accurate. I'm not sure why they call it slow averages.

If either the engine family average or the class/engine average are found to be faster than 0.850-second under, a change will be initiated.

I guess that the NHRA didn't read the criteria for the AHFS.....

Runs that are slower than .350 under don't count......

The inmates are running the asylum......
