I don't understand what NHRA's objective is. We went from run as fast as to want with no HP hits, to the complete opposite in 60 Days.

Steve with all the talk last year about Stock and Super/ Stock being a performance Class this just helped do away with it. It appears to me they want us all to have cars that run between .65 and 85 under. Without the mine shaft conditions in there I don't think I'll try to make the Baby Gators the Gainesville Nationals or Indy. If the air is real good at the Baby Gator's which is the case most years and you try hard to win class and go 1.10 under. You will have to play the game the rest of the year trying to fit in that small window of .65 to .85. It will also help kill class at Indy. Didn't they see the turnout at Indy last year. And the times cars ran compared to the last couple of years. If they were going to put that small of a window in. It would have been nice to have mineshaft conditions. But keep the 1.30 instant hit in. But then again what do I know I've only been doing this for 45 years.
There were 969 Stockers that ran at least one race for points last year. Out of that many cars how many are that under factored? My guess would be under 5 percent. So for less than 5 percent you make a rule that could add HP to the other 95 percent unless you play the game and run your car soft as all he## or let off at the 1000 foot line. This year being worse than last trying to fit it in that window of .65 to .95. And with no mine shaft conditions. This is drag racing isn't it? I could understand if it was T-Ball.
I would have more respect if they would just come out and tell us your wasting your time working on your car and spending money to make it go fast. We don't want your kind anymore. BP
