What would be your method of applying the correct HP factors? The AHFS did away with personal opinions one might have of another racer or race car when considering HP factors.

Every year, over the winter NHRA should look at all of the combos that went "silly" fast over the course of the previous season and in one shot bring them back into line. Example, if one combos "average" is 3 tenths faster than the rest of the classes "average" then give that combo enough HP to slow it down at least 2 tenths in one shot.

Ed, I'd like to see Glendora give us Stock/Super Stock racers our .30 seconds back that they took from us last year, but I know they won't which sucks canal water!!!

Get an un-altered one, tie it down on a chassis dyno. Average drivetrain loss for a stick car is 15%. 20% for an automatic car. If it makes more than the claimed rating at the tires, start with that. It would still be a little soft but guys couldn't cry about the drivetrain loss factor being wrong for a particular vehicle.

I don't agree with the pump gas deal at all.
