Class Elim.'s

Speaking of Class Eliminations, has anybody heard "Officially" what the deal for winning class on a single is now that NHRA reduced all the Stock & S/S indexs 3 tenths.A few years back, they required a single car class winner to run at least 5 tenths under the old indexs. (As I understand it, for 2 or more cars, this 1/2 second under was not required, if the winner of a pair was 1 tenth under, and the 2nd car was slower, or redlite, that was acceptable).

Now with the lower indexes, is this 5 tenth under rule over with (on a single), or does a car need to run 8 tenths under the old indexes? Anybody "won" class on a single at less than 5 tenths under at a NHRA National event in 2010 yet? The NHRA website doesn`t seem to have any info on this issue.
