Thumbs down Re: Stick cars at Indy

Just wait until some of the DP's change over to a stick not to mention the Mustangs due to the AHFS factoring. Remember when an auto combo gets a hit the stick combo stays the same.

I don't know much about engine building... man! Must be a huge investment to have both an automatic engine dyno and a stick-shift engine dyno...

It would only even *start* to make sense to have different HP factors for the exact same engine *maybe* if sticks and autos were run together.

Well the AHFS only affects the combo that trips the triggers. I still think stick and autos should run heads up and the lower class smaller engine combos getting a small wt. break. Less classes....more heads up runs. Not so much bracket racing.
