New S/SS NHRA Horsepower Adjustments

I understand I helped by going over a sec under. But I was smart enough to not set the trigger. With the air at the reading race I easily could have been in the 11's but added weight and backed it down to stay below. I was 100 pounds heavy and shortshifted to stay safe.It just drives me crazy to see this happen from someone else. I want to know where the two triggers were because that is what it takes, correct? If I was a B or H car etc it happens. A lot of heads ups there. Not in a class w/six of us where there is no need now, but will be w/FI cars coming over.Just venting Time to go back to making more hp I guess.
