Billy,
Got your broad brush out today? Not all of the fast racers are doing the things you are "bitching" about. nhra has accepted a ton of changes and you can ignore that if you want but that is what we are dealing with here. Lowering the indexes .20 still doesn't offset the tons of HP increases that have been LEGALLY gained over the last ten years or so.

Tony,
I have no problem with you or any one else who wants to race a slow car. That's your business, but both of us know that you have the means to go faster if you want to. You come out here all the time and bang away on the racers who want to go fast; is that fair?

You guys have to remember that the ahfs is a double edge sword. You seem to be interested only in the penalty edge of the sword. Look at the other edge. The one that allows for HP decreases if you are running a bad combination.

A high dollar motor can certainly make a car go faster but there is a ton of performance to be found in these cars by just plain working your *** off on them like many of the faster racers do. You put a high dollar motor in some of these slow cars and they still won't run -.600 under the index because the racer isn't working on the rest of the car.

I really think you guys have to get with the competitive spirit of the sport and stop complaining because you want other racers brought down to your level of performance through the ahfs. Even nhra isn't going to by that old story.
