Protest at Indy.

I'm not understanding why someone would want to run their car and trigger THEIR OWN combo for HP increase? I can see going fast at Indy and I can see going fast in a heads-up race, that make sense. Going fast all the time and triggering your OWN COMBO where you've spent a lot of time and money to make it go fast is sorta like shooting your self in the foot, no? Especially when everyone knows you have fast car anyway and you have nothing to prove.

As far as being protested, I would think it's an ego booster that my competitors think I'm so fast I may be illegal.

If I had a 69 Camaro in the garage and thinking of building it for stock it wouldn't be the 396 combo I would build especially when you have somebody that continues to pound the combo. I would build a Corvette that is an easier combo.

Just some thoughts.
