When NHRA created the AA/S and AA/SA classes, the A/SA index was 11.30. Len Imbrogno asked the group of racers what index they wanted for AA, and the index agreed upon was 10.90, and no mention was made of lowering the indexes 3 tenths at any time. I'm not seeing anywhere in Stock or Super Stock where a 0.5 pound weight break equaled 4 tenths to begin with. But the guys who asked for AA asked for some room to let the cars run, that we all agreed on. The truth is, when the indexes were lowered, it brought most of the rest of the classes inline with the 10.90 index for AA. At which point lowering the AA index one tenth to 10.80 would have been reasonable, and pretty much acceptable to everyone.

And yeah, right now, we wouldn't vote, due to a myriad of reasons, we've been out for a year or two. However, we were one of the first to roll out with AA/SA on the windshield, and ran it consistently for quite some time.

I was afraid someone would say they have been out for a year.
Okay, make it two years then.
Carry on...
