If I remember correctly the top 16 qualifiers received points at nat'ls back in the 80's. Could not find anything for sure, but I seem to recall that. Old age creeps in.

I like what you're saying. Records A/SA through F/SA are all between -1.11 to -1.16 under. It may be a little risky to try to take one of those records and not get a HP hit. It would be better if records indicated the true pinnacle of performance without a potential penalty.

A few points for records is a great idea, but there needs to be some sort of limit so people don't go around borrowing cars to set records in different classes.

Mike I found this post back on page 3 drifting away in the wind. Not much support for this idea. To bad.

Ed, there is a lot of support for this idea. Unfortunately, none of it matters to NHRA, which is who we'd have to get to put it into place. It would add a considerable amount of "work" to their already intolerable burden of carrying sportsman drag racing along for the ride with the "pro circus".

You've received something official from NHRA on this?
