I'll have more questions after acquirring this data.

Indexes were last adjusted by 0.30 across the board in 2010.

2009 Indy Stock Qualifying:
#1 was -1.332
#32 was -1.171
#64 was -1.115
#128 was -1.002

It isn't a great comparison because of weather differences, no AHFS in 2024, etc...but 2009's #1 qualifier would have qualified #57 at Indy in 2024 (accounting for the 0.30 index shift).

I would imagine last years Indy would've looked strikingly similar to these numbers had AHFS been in place for it.

Before or after the 2010 season?

Nick Heath · 03-06-2025, 05:40 PM

Before. So 2010 would be the first year with lowered indexes.
