Did Larry Hill make NHRA tech look stupid????
The way I understand it if there is no data on a
combo nhra starts the combo out at "advertised" H.p.
on all these combo's. what else do they have to go from.
Agreed auto was already rated higher but sticks and auto's are
always separated. The low h.p. rating of 155 from GM.
I am sure they were colluding with larry hill to crush V/S
index some 28 years after production?
"AHFS" will add some 40 ISH H.p. tomorrow morning
and I am sure Larry knew it going into indy....
This will never be a 2 second under deal again.
combo moves to probably top of Q stick for natural class.
Still a great job and congrats to Larry and family.
