Lowering the indexes will not bring more cars to the track. Fast guys have the choice to run all out or hold back. If you are racing a combo that can run way under including under the trigger then you could get a hit at any time. Realistically there was very few HP hits at the end of the season last year.

Our SCRA rep told me that very few racers in StK and SS even voted on the index change.

At some point indexes will have to change or combos will have to move classes...
There is only so much weight that can be added...
(Per RULES and/or LOGIC)... If that matters....

I don?t think they published the exact amount of racers that voted but did tell us the the majority voted to keep the index?s as they were.

Looking at the Indy Stock/Super Stock entry list currently it is 153 (3 over Quota Stk/150 Quota in S.S.), and looks to be a bad fast and quite competitive field vying for those 128 Qualifying spots to race field after Class, so it did not scare away many (the AHFS back on at Indy again), that want to race in the NHRA 2025 Indy Big Go Show!

There are a few in some classes that were fastest of the fast missing that raced last year when it was off, nobody but them knows if they even had plans to attend this year or not. Even AHFS back on the over quota shows the interest in class racing is healthy and its predicted by many demise is a fallacy often repeated. The field may be graying but isn't going away anytime soon. Go get those Wally's boys and girls (or shall I say in most cases Ladies and Gents!)

Those trophies will not say AHFS on or off. They will just say 2025 Indy Class Champion, and Event Winner! And those memories last a lifetime.

We need personal hp factoring in Stock and Super Stock! They do it in Comp, why can?t it be done in Stock and Super Stock? We have Nitro Joes stats and now Draginsights.com to provide all the data needed!

Maybe not a solution, for that is why Comp nearly died. It probably would have, had Roger Brogdon not been involved.

What we NEED is good old-fashioned Tech Inspections instead of the On-Your-Honor stuff that we have now!
Trust me. ;-)
