Slow Runs!

GUMP · 12-31-2021, 10:50 AM

If the NHRA is looking at increments, how should a run with issues be treated? (That still meets the criteria to lower the average.) I'm talking about missed shifts, tire spin, etc.

When my opponent red lights, I usually drop at 1,000 feet. How should that be treated?

(Ken, sorry if I've passed my thread limit. I know that the NHRA is looking at ways to "fix" the AHFS. I also know that they read some of these threads. This might be our chance to get our opinions considered. Thanks!)

The only place for thread limits are the Classifieds... post away.

NHRA has a perfectly good "handle" on 1/8th mile E.T.s VS 1/4 mile. No need to have to come up with something new and complicated.

NHRA is content with the AHFS the way it stands and has no plans to make any more changes in the near future. This is just fluff.

Says the man with 6,000+ posts. I do know how to communicate with the people at NHRA. Just ask questions. It doesn't take a prolific forum dude to understand their answers.

I always knew that NHRA had a bunch of fluffers on the payroll...

Some people have issues with every run - not enough power - and those are the ones NHRA tries to identify.
