Nothing changes unless your combination is one of the 15 to get hit with hp.

Lets hope its just a rumor.

If its true that they are dropping all the indexs 3 tenths, there will be less sandbagging at national events and the price of lead will be a lot cheaper. It would take a pass of 1.45 under todays index system for a combination to be triggered. This makes it a lot easier on NHRA to monitor. Plus how many cars do you see that run less then 3 tenths under?

So basically in 2010 permanent hits would be .05 faster than in 2009? i.e. Caro's -1.41 run at Indy that hit SS/BM .15, wouldn't automatically hit it .15 in 2010? If so, then that ain't right. It should still be 1.40 or 1.10 less the three tenths.
