Looks like that combo is now a natural A car if I am reading it right 8.02 weight break. Did not notice that Les went -1.360 under that fast in his first round bye run was only paying attention to my own runs.

"NHRA's 2011 Automatic Horsepower Factoring System outlines that any run of 1.20-second or more under the index will receive an immediate index decrease or horsepower increase. These changes are effective May 3, 2011."

Where are they going with their usual NHRA vague writing? Is this something new or are they just reinforcing that ANY run of 1.20 or more meaning factored as well as non factored tracks?

Pup,

A lot of people complained about going fast at altitude.......so now they have gotten their wish...If a car goes fast at altitude because of a weather front with real good air it gets hit for both the 1.20 sudden death or the AHFS average twice a year....ALL National & LODRS events count....Like I said before "be careful what you wish for"...

Pup & Mulry,
You're talking NHRA but this is an IHRA crate motor combo only. 350/300/305.
Took 5 off in Feb. but now it earned it back.
