You are right. I didn't include the next paragraph which includes the following - that OEM may apply for inclusion of any special production runs. Special runs must be a minimum of 50 units and need not be showroom available.

That being said, if the index for the Factory Showdown cars was lowered and the AHFS system was applied to ALL CARS things would be less frustrating for the racers.

Greg Hill mentioned that Scott Burton just packed up and left Indy. He has a very fast car (B/SA .977 under and 70th on qualifying list) and was scheduled to run Joey Wilkes (same class) who qualified at 1.409 under.

It has been offered to lower the indexes to 9.60 for FS/A and 9.85 for FS/B, good place to start. And implement the AHFS for all.
