Re: Indy AHFS Poll
I'm only .3 under and I voted no. I want to see who's has what it takes. I'm not a fan about racing to 1000 ft to save a combo throughout the rest of the year. If I am able to receive a reduction then yes I will take it. That's the rules we are given. I'm slow because I do not have the time to test, build another from my mistakes on the first one. Turn them loose at Indy.

It was the Cowboy Cadillac in V/S. We worked so hard on everything that would make it run fast.

Re: Indy AHFS Poll
Get rid of the AHFS altogether and find another "System" with some teeth.
What about Teardowns? I don't think its in the cards of NHRA and not worth the extra money it would take to hire and train new Tech people. If you can Legally run 1.00 under @ Indy I'm impressed, but you need to be looked at thoroughly by somebody that knows. If you can protect your index at all the other races, why not at Indy? If you can't you need HP. Simple. Why do some Combo's get 20-35 HP reductions? Why do the New Combo's get such bogus ratings? I've been on both sides of the fence and its like stealing from your competitor. If the AHFS works leave the early Factory HP ratings alone and let the AHFS work it out, or use realistic HP ratings to begin with. If you are going to use the AHFS, quit handicapping it? It works(?) at a snails pace and it should benefit everybody. I agree its a good "Show" seeing people run 1.20-1.50 under and better at Indy with a 29.20BP and 2500ft DA, but it should count for the AHFS. RJ |

Re: Indy AHFS Poll
What good is it to have a car capable of running 1.5 under the index if you don't use it? The AHFS is flawed only because the indexes and horsepower ratings are out of wack. How cool were the early independent races that allowed you to showcase your cars? In my opinion it was awesome.
Mr. Downing, I voted because I'm a former racer who spent lots of money and time on my race cars, a long time member and if you don't like it, get a life. |
Re: Indy AHFS Poll
The best part of the Edelbrock head is 40# off the nose. That is real important when you have 300+# in the driver’s seat. The worst part is getting the runners to size, they are way to big. In no way are they a magic Bullet. With the weight off the nose the car works better.

Is all of this WOKE crap starting to influence S/SS Racing now? Ya take advantage of all of the "candy" handed out by the Tech Dept. and work the AHFS for all of the givebacks that you're entitled to and now that your combo can go 1.5 under and hurt itself ya want to change the indexes and screw the other 50 combos in the class! |
