My comments are only in regard to Super Stock.

Just think it is crazy to have cars running 1.4 and more under the index. Why do we have an index if they are that far from what we are able to run. I don't think there should be such a difference between the index and the car's actual ET potential.

Why do we need the index to be so soft? New racers joining the class? How many new racers have you seen that don't run well under the current numbers? Not many. Most of the new guys come in with top notch equipment and kick all our butts. Dad puts them in a modified car and it is off to the races. No worry about running the number there. If anything it is some of the seasoned racers who chose to run where they are because they can without any detriment. Actually it can be an advantage since you don't have to push your equipment. Not a bad idea but it gets back to the bracket racing thing. No incentive to go fast.
