Index was a great device suggested years ago to create a national et for all cars to race from that was stable. It was slow enough that almost all racers could use and bracket race in S and SS. With time it was recognized that being allowed to dial under it so break outs and dangerous braking would be less frequent. Now with the advances of current rules and parts and skill they "seem" to be very attainable by the majority of racers.It could be it is time to just move them several tenths down along with the trigger to AHFS and class winner status to make eliminator to make a smaller number under as a level of success.
I am not sure if anyone who brings a stocker to the races today doesnt get to race because he cannot run index. If eveyone can run on or under first time out is that what the goal? Should some achievement be needed to break into Stock or SS racing? Not my call, just a question?
