How can a combo get automatic hp when these things don’t happen after a run?
No fuel check when it’s not mandatory
No scale when it’s not mandatory
No teardown

I am not saying that I would not have passed all these things or that my combo did not need hp. All I am saying what is stopping someone from putting a big inch motor or pulling weight in a car and getting someone else's combo auto HP? Example I barrow some ones 1970 350 camaro run 1.00 under in qualifying and first round I pull out 300 pounds and red light. I run 1.30 and never scale, fuel check or teardown. How mad would greg hill be then?


No scale? Yeah, that might have been a problem, just like last year at Indy Charley. I do find it odd that they didn't tear you down LOL.

I love you man, but I remember when you got HP off the combo in SS, you were gloating about knowing all the answers about this stuff last year.
